NOPADDING
No padding applied.Plaintext must be strictly less than modulus
p. Provides only semantic security under chosen-plaintext attack if used in combination with fresh random exponents. Not recommended for use outside compatibility scenarios. -
PKCS1
PKCS#1 v1.5-style padding.Adds structured redundancy to plaintext before encryption. Historically used in RSA and adapted here for ElGamal. Provides limited protection against certain classes of attacks but should be replaced by modern OAEP-style constructions where available.
