Iguana also supports other encryption and digital signing protocols that ensure data integrity, through its Crypto API. The crypto API exposes OpenSSL methods for signing, verifying, encrypting, decrypting data, etc. This API is very helpful when implementing frameworks like OAuth.

Please see the built-in help documentation within the Translator for implementation examples.
