Crypto-keys

Node Module for Cryptographic Key Utilities in JavaScript'

Node Javascript Tool to generate, encrypt and decrypt RSA and EC keys formated as PEM / DER.

Fork of js-crypto-key-utils to work only with node.js, with less dependencies and not available for Octet-Formatted Key.

Included code to generate private and public key pair with RSA or EC algorithm

Usage

Supported key types are PEM/DER.

• Public keys are encoded to the form of SubjectPublicKeyInfo (SPKI) defined as a part of X.509 public key certificate (RFC5280). The detailed encoding rule for elliptic curve cryptographic keys is given in RFC5480.
• Private keys are encoded to hte form of PrivateKeyInfo defined in PKCS#8 (RFC5958). The detailed encoding rule for elliptic curve cryptographic keys is given in RFC5915 as well as SPKI.

Please refer to RFC3447 for the detailed encoding rule of RSA public and private keys.
