This function is EXPERIMENTAL. The behaviour of this function, the name of this function, and anything else documented about this function may change without notice in a future release of PHP. Use this function at your own risk.

openssl_private_encrypt() encrypts data with private key and stores the result into crypted. Encrypted data can be decrypted via openssl_public_decrypt(). padding defaults to OPENSSL_PKCS1_PADDING, but can also be OPENSSL_NO_PADDING.

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

This function can be used e.g. to sign data (or its hash) to prove that it is not written by someone else.
