SRP is a cryptographically strong authentication - protocol for password-based, mutual authentication over an insecure - network connection. - - Unlike other common challenge-response autentication protocols, such - as Kereros and SSL, SRP does not rely on an external infrastructure - of trusted key servers or certificate management. Instead, SRP server - applications use verification keys derived from each user's password - to determine the authenticity of a network connection. - - SRP provides mutual-authentication in that successful authentication - requires that both sides of the connection must have knowledge of the - user's password. If the client side lacks the user's password or the - server side lacks the proper verification key, the authentication will - fail. - - Unlike SSL, SRP does not directly encrypt all data flowing through - the authenticated connection. However, successful authentication does - result in a cryptographically strong shared key that can be used - for symmetric-key encryption. - - For a full description of the pysrp package and the SRP protocol, - please refer to the `srp module documentation`_. - - .. _`srp module documentation`: http://packages.python.org/pysrp - - -Platform: OS Independent -Classifier: Development Status :: 5 - Production/Stable -Classifier: Intended Audience :: Developers -Classifier: License :: OSI Approved :: BSD License -Classifier: Operating System :: OS Independent -Classifier: Programming Language :: Python -Classifier: Programming Language :: C -Classifier: Topic :: Security |
