Encryption

Apply RSA encryption techniques along with AES symmetric encryption

Objective

Joule combines RSA encryption with AES symmetric encryption to achieve the security of RSA with the performance of AES.

Session based keys are generated on Joule process startup with the ability to rotate keys on subsequent process restarts.
