MD2 - rs_md2 - Message Digest Algorithm 2

Important Note: This crate is still a work in progress and is not ready for consumption.

MD2 is a cryptographic hash function designed by Ronald Rivest in 1989. Though its usage has declined over the years, it has been historically applied in several contexts such as:

  • Digital Signature Standard.
  • Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) systems.
  • Secure communication protocols like Transport Layer Security (TLS), Secure Shell (SSH), Internet Protocol Security (IPSec), etc.

This crate implements MD2 as part of the RustyShield project.
