Summary : Perl implementation of the RC4 encryption algorithm
URL : https://metacpan.org/release/Crypt-RC4
License : GPL+ or Artistic
Description : A simple implementation of the RC4 algorithm, developed by RSA Security,
: Inc. Here is the description from RSA's website:
:
: RC4 is a stream cipher designed by Rivest for RSA Data Security (now RSA
: Security). It is a variable key-size stream cipher with byte-oriented
: operations. The algorithm is based on the use of a random permutation. Analysis
: shows that the period of the cipher is overwhelmingly likely to be greater than
: 10100. Eight to sixteen machine operations are required per output byte, and
: the cipher can be expected to run very quickly in software. Independent analysts
: have scrutinized the algorithm and it is considered secure.
