NAME

cryptest - Test Driver for Crypto++, a C++ Class Library of Cryptographic Primitives

SYNOPSIS

cryptest [OPTION]

DESCRIPTION

cryptest takes the following options

g: generate an RSA key
h: display usage information
r: encrypt and decrypt a string using RSA
rs privatekeyfile messagefile signaturefile: sign a file using RSA
rv publickeyfile messagefile signaturefile: verify a signature of a file using RSA
m file: calculate MD5, SHA, and RIPEMD-160 message digests
t: encrypt and decrypt a string using DES-EDE in CBC mode
e|d input output: encrypt or decrypt a file
ss <threshold> <number-of-shares> file: secret share a file (shares will be named file.000, file.001, etc)
sr file share1 share2 [....]: reconstruct a secret-shared file (number of shares given must be equal to threshold)
id <threshold> <number-of-shares> file: information disperse a file (shares will be named file.000, file.001, etc)
ir file share1 share2 [....]: reconstruct an information-dispersed file (number of shares given must be equal to threshold)
z <compression-level> input output: gzip a file
u input output: gunzip a file
ae input output: encrypt a file with AES in CTR mode
e64 input output: base64 encode a file
d64 input output: base64 decode a file
e16 input output: hex encode a file
d16 input output: hex decode a file
ft source-port destination-host destination-port: forward a TCP connection
fips: run the FIPS 140-2 sample application
fips-rand: generate 100000 random files using FIPS Approved X.917 RNG
mt input: run Maurer's randomness test on a file
v: run validation tests
V: display version number
b [time for each benchmark in seconds] [frequency of CPU in gigahertz]: run benchmarks
tv filename: run test vector file (available in TestVectors example subdirectory)
