HIME stands for Huge Integer Math and Encryption library.
It is a collection of functions for Windows programmers that allows to implement RSA public key encryption, AES (Rijndael) secret key encryption and digital signatures using the SHA-256 Secure Hash Algorithm in your programs.
HIME also contains functions for huge prime number generation, cryptographically secure random number generation (a.o. Blum-Blum-Shub and RSA) and huge integer number mathematical operations.
These mathematical functions can serve as building blocks for implementing other public key encryption schemes.
A huge integer number in HIME can be hundreds of thousands of digits long; 2^31 (2147483648) bits long to be exact. That's over 268 MILLION digits! (In contrast, a strong 512-bit encryption key is just 64 digits).
HIME is a dll, so every programming language that can access a dll can use HIME: C, C++, Visual Basic, Delphi, PowerBASIC, PureBASIC, Euphoria, Java,...
HIME comes with demo and test programs (including their source code) to show HIMEs performance and as an example of how to use HIME.
A demo program in Visual Basic 5/6 is also included.
HIME was written in PowerBASIC and inline assembler.
