# ESP Encrypted Image Abstraction Layer
This component provides an API interface to decrypt data defined in "ESP Encrypted Image" format. This format is as specified at [Image Format](#image-format)
This component can help in integrating pre encrypted firmware in over-the-air updates. Additionally, this component can also be used for other use-cases which requires addition of encryption layer for custom data.
## Image Format
![Image Format](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/espressif/idf-extra-components/master/esp_encrypted_img/image_format.png)
```c
typedef struct {
char magic[4];
char enc_gcm[384];
char iv[16];
char bin_size[4];
char auth[16];
char extra_header[88];
} pre_enc_bin_header;
```
The above struct represents encrypted image header.
Note:
* RSA-3072 key is provided to the tool externally. You can generate RSA key pair using following command:
`openssl genrsa -out rsa_key/private.pem 3072`
* AES-GCM key and IV are generated by the tool itself.
## Tool Info
This component also contains tool ([esp_enc_img_gen.py](https://github.com/espressif/idf-extra-components/blob/master/esp_encrypted_img/tools/esp_enc_img_gen.py)) to generate encrypted images using RSA3072 public key.
To know more about the tool, use command:
`python esp_enc_img-gen.py --help`
## API Reference
To learn more about how to use this component, please check API Documentation from header file [esp_encrypted_img.h](https://github.com/espressif/idf-extra-components/blob/master/esp_encrypted_img/include/esp_encrypted_img.h)
