Virgil Security vs OpenSSL: What are the differences?

What is Virgil Security? We make every developer into an applied cryptologist. Virgil consists of an open-source encryption library, which implements CMS and ECIES(including RSA schema), a Key Management API, and a cloud-based Key Management Service.

What is OpenSSL? Full-featured toolkit for the Transport Layer Security and Secure Sockets Layer protocols. It is a robust, commercial-grade, and full-featured toolkit for the Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols. It is also a general-purpose cryptography library.

Virgil Security and OpenSSL can be primarily classified as "Security" tools.

Some of the features offered by Virgil Security are:

• End-to-end encryption
• Passwordless authentication
• Data verification

On the other hand, OpenSSL provides the following key features:

• Robust
• Commercial-grade
• Transport Layer Security
