Method Summary

static byte[]
I2OSP(BigInteger s, int k)
Converts a multi-precision integer (MPI) s into an octet sequence of length k.
static BigInteger
decrypt(PrivateKey K, BigInteger c)
An implementation of the RSADP algorithm.
static BigInteger
encrypt(PublicKey K, BigInteger m)
An implementation of the RSAEP algorithm.
static BigInteger
sign(PrivateKey K, BigInteger m)
An implementation of the RSASP method: Assuming that the designated RSA private key is a valid one, this method computes a signature representative for a designated message representative signed by the holder of the designated RSA private key.

static BigInteger
verify(PublicKey K, BigInteger s)
An implementation of the RSAVP method: Assuming that the designated RSA public key is a valid one, this method computes a message representative for the designated signature representative generated by an RSA private key, for a message intended for the holder of the designated RSA public key.

Method Details

I2OSP

public static final byte[] I2OSP(BigInteger s,
                                 int k)
Converts a multi-precision integer (MPI) s into an octet sequence of length k.
Parameters:
s - the multi-precision integer to convert.
k - the length of the output.
Returns:
the result of the transform.

decrypt

public static final BigInteger decrypt(PrivateKey K,
                                       BigInteger c)
An implementation of the RSADP algorithm.
Parameters:
K - the recipient's RSA private key.
c - the ciphertext representative as an MPI.
Returns:
the message representative, an MPI between 0 and n - 1 (n being the shared public modulus).

encrypt

public static final BigInteger encrypt(PublicKey K,
                                       BigInteger m)
An implementation of the RSAEP algorithm.
Parameters:
K - the recipient's RSA public key.
m - the message representative as an MPI.
Returns:
the resulting MPI --an MPI between 0 and n - 1 (n being the public shared modulus)-- that will eventually be padded with an appropriate framing/padding scheme.

sign

public static final BigInteger sign(PrivateKey K,
                                    BigInteger m)
An implementation of the RSASP method: Assuming that the designated RSA private key is a valid one, this method computes a signature representative for a designated message representative signed by the holder of the designated RSA private key.

Parameters:
K - the RSA private key.
m - the message representative: an integer between 0 and n - 1, where n is the RSA modulus.
Returns:
the signature representative, an integer between 0 and n - 1, where n is the RSA modulus.

verify

public static final BigInteger verify(PublicKey K,
                                      BigInteger s)
An implementation of the RSAVP method: Assuming that the designated RSA public key is a valid one, this method computes a message representative for the designated signature representative generated by an RSA private key, for a message intended for the holder of the designated RSA public key.
Parameters:
K - the RSA public key.
s - the signature representative, an integer between 0 and n - 1, where n is the RSA modulus.
Returns:
a message representative: an integer between 0 and n - 1, where n is the RSA modulus.
