iaik.security.cipher.AES256KeyGenerator

public class AES256KeyGenerator
extends VarLengthKeyGenerator

This class provides the functionality of KeyGenerator for generating 256 bit keys for the AES (Rijndael 128Bit block) cipher.

An application uses

 KeyGenerator key_gen = KeyGenerator.getInstance("AES256");
 SecretKey new_key = key_gen.generateKey();
 

for generating the 256 bit key.
