Indeed. Adam started that list in 1996, but I don't think he put allot of time updating it in recent years. Still, I think it's a good list for someone who is starting to look for crypto libraries. It would be nice gift to the community if someone came up with a similar, updated list. --Anton - The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending unsubscribe cryptography to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: recommendations/evaluations of free / low-cost crypto libraries
- Original Message - From: Amir Herzberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: recommendations/evaluations of free / low-cost crypto libraries I will appreciate experience-reports/evaluations/comparisons with free or low cost (and in particular zero `per seat` cost) crypto libraries, especially in C / C++ (or links to web-sites containing them). Generally the two most suggested free products are Crypto++ (http://www.eskimo.com/~weidai/cryptlib.html) and OpenSSL (http://www.openssl.org/). I have used both and both are very good toolsets, each has small advantages, but mostly it's just a programming style preference. As a personal preference, I generally preper OpenSSL for most purposes, because the interface feels better to me, but lately I've been using Crypto++ more because it supports a wider selection of algorithms (including the very important for me ECC variants) which is recently of extreme value to me. I will say that if either of these was pay-ware, I would gladly pay for it. Joe - The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending unsubscribe cryptography to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
