Classes
class Cipher
Represents the abstract base class from which all implementations of symmetric/asymmetric encryption algorithms must inherit.
class CipherFactory
A factory for Cipher objects.
class CipherImpl
An implementation of the Cipher class for OpenSSL's crypto library.
class CipherKey
CipherKey stores the key information for decryption/encryption of data.
class CipherKeyImpl
An implementation of the CipherKey class for OpenSSL's crypto library.
class CryptoException

The base class for CryptoInputStream and CryptoOutputStream.
class CryptoInputStream
This stream transforms all data passing through it using the given CryptoTransform.
class CryptoOutputStream
This stream transforms all data passing through it using the given CryptoTransform.
class CryptoStreamBuf
This stream buffer performs cryptographic transformation on the data going through it.
class CryptoTransform
This interface represents the basic operations for cryptographic transformations to be used with a CryptoInputStream or a CryptoOutputStream.
class DecryptingInputStream
This stream decrypts all data passing through it using the given Cipher.
class DecryptingOutputStream
This stream decrypts all data passing through it using the given Cipher.
class DigestEngine
This class implements a Poco::DigestEngine for all digest algorithms supported by OpenSSL.
class ECDSADigestEngine
This class implements a Poco::DigestEngine that can be used to compute a secure digital signature.
class ECDSASignature
A helper class for dealing with ECDSA signatures.
class ECKey
This class stores an EC key pair, consisting of private and public key.
class ECKeyImpl
Elliptic Curve key clas implementation.
class EVPCipherImpl
An implementation of the Cipher class for asymmetric (public-private key) encryption based on the OpenSSL crypto library.
class EVPPKey
Utility class for conversion of native keys to EVP.
class EncryptingInputStream

class KeyPair
This is a parent class for classes storing a key pair, consisting of private and public key.
class KeyPairImpl
Class KeyPairImpl
class OpenSSLException
class OpenSSLInitializer
Initalizes the OpenSSL library.
class PKCS12Container
This class implements PKCS#12 container functionality.
class RSACipherImpl
An implementation of the Cipher class for asymmetric (public-private key) encryption based on the the RSA algorithm in OpenSSL's crypto library.
class RSADigestEngine
This class implements a Poco::DigestEngine that can be used to compute a secure digital signature.
class RSAKey
This class stores an RSA key pair, consisting of private and public key.
class RSAKeyImpl
class RSAKeyImpl
class X509Certificate
Functions
getError
inline std::string & getError(
std::string & msg
);
Appends OpenSSL error(s) to msg and returns the augmented error description.
initializeCrypto
void initializeCrypto();
Initialize the Crypto library, as well as the underlying OpenSSL libraries, by calling OpenSSLInitializer::initialize().
Should be called before using any class from the Crypto library. The Crypto library will be initialized automatically, through OpenSSLInitializer instances held by various Crypto classes (Cipher, CipherKey, RSAKey, X509Certificate). However, it is recommended to call initializeCrypto() in any case at application startup.
Can be called multiple times; however, for every call to initializeCrypto(), a matching call to uninitializeCrypto() must be performed.
uninitializeCrypto
void uninitializeCrypto();
Uninitializes the Crypto library by calling OpenSSLInitializer::uninitialize().
