RSATool
A Python tool for calculating RSA and RSA-CRT cryptographic parameters and generating OpenSSL-compatible keys.
What is RSATool?
rsatool is a Python command-line utility for calculating RSA cryptographic parameters and generating OpenSSL-compatible private keys. It solves the problem of manually computing RSA values by automating the process of deriving all necessary parameters from either two primes or from modulus and private exponent inputs.
Security researchers, cryptography developers, and system administrators who need to generate RSA keys or work with RSA parameters in cryptographic implementations.
Developers choose rsatool for its simplicity and specificity—it does one thing well without the overhead of larger cryptographic libraries, and it produces keys that are immediately compatible with OpenSSL and other standard tools.
Overview
rsatool can be used to calculate RSA and RSA-CRT parameters
