Class HMacGOST

java.lang.Object

javax.crypto.MacSpi

iaik.security.mac.HMac

iaik.security.mac.HMacGOST

public final class HMacGOST
extends HMac

This class implements the HMAC(Keyed-Hashing for Message Authentication) algorithm as defined in RFC 2104, and RFC 4357 with GOST3411 as message digest algorithm.

This class only instantiates the super HMac class and specifies GOST3411 as hash algorithm to be used.

An application wishing to perform a MAC computation, at first has to create a MAC object by instantiating the Mac class through a proper getInstance factory method thereby specifying the MAC algorithm to be used. Calculating a HMAC based on the GOST3411 hash algorithm, may be initiated as follows:

 Mac gostHMAC = Mac.getInstance("HMAC/GOST3411");
 

After properly initializing the MAC object with one entity�s secret key, the data to be processed is applied by one (or more) calls to the update methods. The MAC computation is concluded by using doFinal. If the data can be processed without calling any update method, doFinal can be called immediately after initializing the MAC object:

 gostHMAC.init(secret_key);
 byte[] mac_data = gostHMAC.doFinal(data);
 

After the MAC finally has been calculated, the MAC object automatically is reset for being able to be used for further MAC computations, either by using the same secret key again, or using a new key by properly re-initializing this MAC object.

Constructor Detail

HMacGOST

public HMacGOST()
         throws java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException

Default constructor. This constructor only calls the constructor of super HMac class thereby specifying GOST3411 as hash function to be used.

Throws:

java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException - if there is no implementation for GOST3411
