Hi, I have a Zymkey HSM connected to an RPI and I generate a key pair using that. I have sent the public key thorugh socket communication to a PC and want to encrypt data using the public key. Since normal ECC does not support encryption I need to install the zymkey library (to perform encryption) even on the PC (but this has NO hsm attahced). Is this possible? Please guide me. Thank you
