+=head1 NAME
+
+evp - high-level cryptographic functions
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/evp.h>
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The EVP library provides a high-level interface to cryptographic
+functions.
+
+L<B<EVP_Seal>I<...>|EVP_SealInit(3)> and L<B<EVP_Open>I<...>|EVP_OpenInit(3)>
+provide public key encryption and decryption to implement digital "envelopes".
+
+The L<B<EVP_DigestSign>I<...>|EVP_DigestSignInit(3)> and
+L<B<EVP_DigestVerify>I<...>|EVP_DigestVerifyInit(3)> functions implement
+digital signatures and Message Authentication Codes (MACs). Also see the older
+L<B<EVP_Sign>I<...>|EVP_SignInit(3)> and L<B<EVP_Verify>I<...>|EVP_VerifyInit(3)>
+functions.
+
+Symmetric encryption is available with the L<B<EVP_Encrypt>I<...>|EVP_EncryptInit(3)>
+functions.  The L<B<EVP_Digest>I<...>|EVP_DigestInit(3)> functions provide message digests.
+
+The B<EVP_PKEY>I<...> functions provide a high level interface to
+asymmetric algorithms. To create a new EVP_PKEY see
+L<EVP_PKEY_new(3)>. EVP_PKEYs can be associated
+with a private key of a particular algorithm by using the functions
+described on the L<EVP_PKEY_set1_RSA(3)> page, or
+new keys can be generated using L<EVP_PKEY_keygen(3)>.
+EVP_PKEYs can be compared using L<EVP_PKEY_cmp(3)>, or printed using
+L<EVP_PKEY_print_private(3)>.
+
+The EVP_PKEY functions support the full range of asymmetric algorithm operations:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item For key agreement see L<EVP_PKEY_derive(3)>
+
+=item For signing and verifying see L<EVP_PKEY_sign(3)>,
+L<EVP_PKEY_verify(3)> and L<EVP_PKEY_verify_recover(3)>.
+However, note that
+these functions do not perform a digest of the data to be signed. Therefore
+normally you would use the L<EVP_DigestSignInit(3)>
+functions for this purpose.
+
+=item For encryption and decryption see L<EVP_PKEY_encrypt(3)>
+and L<EVP_PKEY_decrypt(3)> respectively. However, note that
+these functions perform encryption and decryption only. As public key
+encryption is an expensive operation, normally you would wrap
+an encrypted message in a "digital envelope" using the L<EVP_SealInit(3)> and
+L<EVP_OpenInit(3)> functions.
+
+=back
+
+The L<EVP_BytesToKey(3)> function provides some limited support for password
+based encryption. Careful selection of the parameters will provide a PKCS#5 PBKDF1 compatible
+implementation. However, new applications should not typically use this (preferring, for example,
+PBKDF2 from PCKS#5).
+
+The L<B<EVP_Encode>I<...>|EVP_EncodeInit(3)> and
+L<B<EVP_Decode>I<...>|EVP_EncodeInit(3)> functions implement base 64 encoding
+and decoding.
+
+All the symmetric algorithms (ciphers), digests and asymmetric algorithms
+(public key algorithms) can be replaced by L<engine(3)> modules providing alternative
+implementations. If ENGINE implementations of ciphers or digests are registered
+as defaults, then the various EVP functions will automatically use those
+implementations automatically in preference to built in software
+implementations. For more information, consult the engine(3) man page.
+
+Although low level algorithm specific functions exist for many algorithms
+their use is discouraged. They cannot be used with an ENGINE and ENGINE
+versions of new algorithms cannot be accessed using the low level functions.
+Also makes code harder to adapt to new algorithms and some options are not
+cleanly supported at the low level and some operations are more efficient
+using the high level interface.
