- \\   \\ The OpenSSL ccparam subcommand doesn't directly support adding a password to a key. However, it can be piped back through OpenSSL to give it an extra layer of protection. For example, typing the following will generate an elliptical curve key using the prive256v1 algorithm, and then pipe it directly to the second command. The second command, "openssl ec -aes256 -out yourkey.pem" takes the output of the first one, (an elliptical curve key), encrypts it, then asks you to provide a password to protect it.\\   \\ ''openssl ecparam -genkey -name prime256v1 | openssl ec -aes256 -out yourkey.pem''
