A small Objective-C library for performing RSA encryption and decryption on iOS, using PEM-formatted public and private keys. It provides simple class methods to encrypt/decrypt strings and data, with a companion PHP script for cross-language testing.

Use cases

• encrypt data with an RSA public key in an iOS app
• decrypt server-sent RSA-encrypted data on iOS
• interoperate RSA encryption between iOS and PHP
• encrypt strings with only a public key in Objective-C
• handle PEM public/private keys in an iOS app

When to choose

• you need simple RSA encrypt/decrypt in an Objective-C iOS project
• you must match RSA behavior with a PHP backend
• you want a lightweight drop-in RSA.h/RSA.m without heavy dependencies

When to avoid

• you need thread-safe cryptographic operations
• you need modern algorithms beyond RSA or keychain-managed keys
• you are writing Swift and prefer a native Swift solution
• you need actively maintained code with a clear license
