Description

Provides low-level cryptographic algorithms used by higher-level security software. Applications and libraries can build encryption, hashing, signatures, and authentication features on top of it.

It is not a password manager or encryption app by itself. Keep it when TLS libraries, security tools, or applications depend on its cryptographic routines.
