rsa.EncryptPKCS1v15

RSA.EncryptPKCS1v15 is a method used in RSA encryption to encrypt data using the PKCS1v15 padding scheme. It takes the public key and the plaintext as inputs and returns the ciphertext as output. The PKCS1v15 padding scheme ensures that the plaintext is properly padded before encryption to prevent certain cryptographic attacks.

Here is an example of how RSA.EncryptPKCS1v15 can be used in Python:

from Crypto.PublicKey import RSA
from Crypto.Cipher import PKCS1_v1_5

# Generate or load the public key
public_key = RSA.import_key(open('public_key.pem').read())

# Create a cipher object using the public key
cipher = PKCS1_v1_5.new(public_key)

# Encrypt the plaintext using the PKCS1v15 padding scheme
plaintext = b'This is a secret message.'
ciphertext = cipher.encrypt(plaintext)

print(ciphertext)

In this example, we first import the RSA and PKCS1_v1_5 modules from the PyCryptoDome library. Then, we generate or load the public key from a file (public_key.pem). We create a cipher object using the public key and encrypt the plaintext using the `encrypt` method with PKCS1v15 padding. Finally, we print the ciphertext.

Note that you need to have the PyCryptoDome library installed to use this example code. You can install it using pip: `pip install pycryptodome`.
