- 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.
