(PureBasic) Generate a Random 256-bit AES Key and RSA Encrypt

See more RSA Examples

Generates a random 256-bit AES key and encrypts using an RSA public key. Only the owner of the RSA private key will be able to decrypt the AES key.

Procedure ChilkatExample()

    ; The RSA public key is used for encryption, and the private key for decryption.

    ; The public key's role is to make encryption accessible to anyone while ensuring that
    ; only the private key holder can decrypt the messages.
    ; The public key is designed to be widely distributed so anyone can use it to encrypt messages
    ; intended for the owner of the private key.
