Algorithm developed by Rivest, Shamir and Adelman (allowed in FIPS 186-3 and specified in ANS X9.31 and PKCS #1).

See NIST SP 800-89 under RSA for more information.

A public-key algorithm that is used for key establishment and the generation and verification of digital signatures.

See NIST SP 800-175B Rev. 1 under RSA for more information.

An algorithm approved in FIPS 186 for digital signatures and in SP 800-56B for key establishment.
