> What is uPKI?
> -------------
>
> A Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a set of technologies and
> policies that provide scalable infrastructure for securing internet
> interactions through the use of public key cryptography. PKI is used in
> many applications such as IPsec VPN, Code signing, SSL, and secure
> mail.
>
> uPKI is a C toolkit optimised for network devices. The design of �PKI
> has emphasized flexibility and simplicity. The result is a toolkit
> which is lightweight and fast and has been optimised for a low code,
> memory and stack footprint.
>
> Features
> --------
>
> * PKI toolkit with reduced code and memory footprint
>
> * Generation, signing and verification of X.509 v3 certificates and
> CRLS including support for all standard X.509 and PKIX extensions.
>
> * Signatures using DSA and RSA with SHA-1 and MD5
>
> * FIPS-186 Random Number Generator
>
> * DES and 3-DES (CBC and ECB modes)
>
> * Support for PKCS#10 Certificate Requests.
>
> * PKIX compliant certification path processing
>
> * Storage of private keys in PKCS#8 format
>
> * Non-export restricted, full-strength cryptography.
>
> * Command line utilities for generating keys, certificates etc.
>
> Applications
> ------------
>
> uPKI can be used to PKI enable any network device including:
>
> * VPN routers
> * Payment Terminals
> * Set-top boxes
>
> Supported Platforms
> -------------------
> uPKI is currently supported on the following platforms
>
> Solaris (Sparc) 2.7
> Linux (x86) 2.2.5-15
> FreeBSD (x86) 4.0
> OpenBSD (x86) 2.7
> Win32 (x86) NT 4.0
