-This code contains a Darwin version of CDSA along with many other security libraries.
+Update June 17, 2014
 
-Information about CDSA may be obtained from the OpenGroup web site at:
+Here lie the iOS and OS X versions of Security, including securityd and SecurityTool for OS X.

+               Last update Dec 1 2005

+Standalone crypto libs
+----------------------
 
+libCert/
+       Library to parse and verify X509 certificates. Uses libgRSA,
+       libDER, libMD5, and libSHA1. 
 
-To build this project in a Darwin environment (as opposed to building in-house
-at Apple), use the Darwin buildstyle. If you're building with Xcode, select
-"Darwin" from the "Active Build Style" popup. If you're building from the command
-line, specify the build style like so:
+libDER/
+       DER decoding library, ROM_capable, no malloc. 
 
-% xcodebuild -buildstyle Darwin install
+libGiants/
+       General purpose ROM-capable giantIntegers package. No malloc. 
+       Performs unsigned arithmetic ONLY as of Nov. 28 2005. 
+               
+libgRSA/
+       Full ROM-capable RSA package based on libGiants. 
+       Provided to Mike Smith and Chris Aycock 8/23/05.
+       Converted to unsigned libGiants circa 11/30/05.
 
-This build style is necessitated by the fact that the CSP built at (and 
-shipped by) Apple includes some algorithms which are proprietary to Apple;
-the source code for these algorithms is not open source. Selecting the 
-Darwin build style allows the Security project (and also the CSP, in 
-the libsecurity_apple_csp project, which also must be built with the 
-Darwin build style) to be built from the Darwin open source tree without 
-requiring the source for these algorithms. 
+libScripts/
+       Scripts to build and test all of these libraries.
