In [[cryptography]], '''Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding''' ('''OAEP''') is a [[padding (cryptography)|padding scheme]] often used together with [[RSA (algorithm)|RSA encryption]]. OAEP was introduced by [[Mihir Bellare|Bellare]] and [[Phillip Rogaway|Rogaway]],<ref>[[Mihir Bellare|M. Bellare]], [[Phillip Rogaway|P. Rogaway]]. ''Optimal Asymmetric Encryption -- How to encrypt with RSA''. Extended abstract in Advances in Cryptology - [[Eurocrypt]] '94 Proceedings, Lecture Notes in Computer Science Vol. 950, A. De Santis ed, [[Springer-Verlag]], 1995. [http://www-cse.ucsd.edu/users/mihir/papers/oae.pdf full version (pdf)]</ref> and subsequently standardized in [[PKCS1|PKCS #1v2]] and RFC 2437.
