RFC3447 - PKCS #1: RSA Cryptography Specifications

return to the IETF Standards

Table 1: Data sheet for PKCS #1: RSA Cryptography Specifications
Title PKCS #1: RSA Cryptography Specifications
Acronym PKCS-RSA
Version version 2.1
Document Number RFC3447
Release Date February 2003
Reference https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3447.txt
Note: The following is an excerpt from the official IETF RFC. It is provided here as a convenience and is not authoritative. Refer to the original document as the authoritative reference.

Introduction

This document provides recommendations for the implementation of public-key cryptography based on the RSA algorithm 1), covering the following aspects:
  • Cryptographic primitives
  • Encryption schemes
  • Signature schemes with appendix
  • ASN.1 syntax for representing keys and for identifying the schemes
The recommendations are intended for general application within computer and communications systems, and as such include a fair amount of flexibility. It is expected that application standards based on these specifications may include additional constraints. The recommendations are intended to be compatible with the standard IEEE-1363-2000 [26] and draft standards currently being developed by the ANSI X9F1 [1] and IEEE P1363 [27] working groups.
