Crypt::IDA Description

Michael Rabin's Information Dispersal Algorithm Crypt::IDA is a Perl module that splits a secret into one or more "shares" which have the property that if a certain number of shares (the "quorum" or "threshold") are presented in the combine step, the secret can be recovered. The algorithm should be cryptographically secure in the sense that if fewer shares than the quorum are presented, no information about the secret is revealed.SYNOPSIS use Crypt::IDA ":default"; $source=fill_from_string ($string,$align); $source=fill_from_fh ($fh,$align,$offset); $source=fill_from_file ($filename,$align,$offset); $sink=empty_to_string (\$string); $sink=empty_to_fh ($fh,$offset); $sink=empty_to_file ($filename,$mode,$offset); ($key,$mat,$bytes) = ida_split ( ... ); $bytes = ida_combine ( ... ); Requirements: · Perl
