Method Details

formatSalt

public static byte[] formatSalt(JWEAlgorithm alg,
 byte[] salt)
                         throws JOSEException

Formats the specified cryptographic salt for use in PBKDF2.

 UTF8(JWE-alg) || 0x00 || Salt Input
 

Parameters:

alg - The JWE algorithm. Must not be null.

salt - The cryptographic salt. Must be at least 8 bytes long.

Returns:

The formatted salt for use in PBKDF2.

Throws:

JOSEException - If formatting failed.

deriveKey

public static SecretKey deriveKey(byte[] password,
 byte[] formattedSalt,
 int iterationCount,
 PRFParams prfParams)
                           throws JOSEException

Derives a PBKDF2 key from the specified password and parameters.

Parameters:

password - The password. Must not be null.

formattedSalt - The formatted cryptographic salt. Must not be null.

iterationCount - The iteration count. Must be a positive integer.

prfParams - The Pseudo-Random Function (PRF) parameters. Must not be null.

Returns:

The derived secret key (with "AES" algorithm).

Throws:

JOSEException - If the key derivation failed.
