This document describes a simple Application Program Interface to cryptographic functions. The main purpose of such an interface is to separate cryptographic libraries from internet applications, thus allowing an independent development of both. It can be used in various internet applications such as [IPsec], [ISAKMP], [IKE], [TLS].
