The EVP library provides a high-level interface to cryptographic
functions.

-functions. The L<B<EVP_Digest>I<...>|EVP_DigestInit(3)> functions provide message digests.

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

implementation. However, new applications should not typically use this (preferring, for example,
PBKDF2 from PCKS#5).
