Interface AuthCipherEngine

All Superinterfaces:

CipherEngine, MacAADEngine, MacEngine

public interface AuthCipherEngine
extends CipherEngine, MacAADEngine

Generic authentication Cipher engine for authenticated data encryption. Used by class EncryptedContentInfoOutputStream for authenticated content encryption with CMS content-type AuthEnvelopedData.
Additional data (which shall be authenticated only but not encrypted) may be set by calling method setAdditionalAuthData, and method getMac returns the calculated message authentication code.

An application that implements its own AuthCipherEngine has to override the following SecurityProvider methods to plug-in its own implementation:

• getAuthCipherEngine(AlgorithmID algorithm, int mode, Key key, AlgorithmParameters params, byte[] aad)
• getAuthCipherEngine(AlgorithmID algorithm, int mode, Key key, AlgorithmParameterSpec params, byte[] aad)
