The modules described in this chapter implement various algorithms of
|
|
a cryptographic nature. They are available at the discretion of the
|
|
installation. Here's an overview:

Hardcore cypherpunks will probably find the cryptographic modules
|
|
written by A.M. Kuchling of further interest; the package contains
|
|
modules for various encryption algorithms, most notably AES. These modules
|
|
are not distributed with Python but available separately. See the URL

for more information.
