Constructor Details

BlockCipherMac

public BlockCipherMac(BlockCipher cipher)

Deprecated.

use CBCBlockCipherMac

create a standard MAC based on a block cipher. This will produce an authentication code half the length of the block size of the cipher.

Parameters:

cipher - the cipher to be used as the basis of the MAC generation.

BlockCipherMac

public BlockCipherMac(BlockCipher cipher,
 int macSizeInBits)

Deprecated.

use CBCBlockCipherMac

create a standard MAC based on a block cipher with the size of the MAC been given in bits.

Note: the size of the MAC must be at least 16 bits (FIPS Publication 113), and in general should be less than the size of the block cipher as it reduces the chance of an exhaustive attack (see Handbook of Applied Cryptography).

Parameters:

cipher - the cipher to be used as the basis of the MAC generation.

macSizeInBits - the size of the MAC in bits, must be a multiple of 8.

Method Details

getAlgorithmName

public String getAlgorithmName()

Description copied from interface: Mac

Return the name of the algorithm the MAC implements.

Specified by:

getAlgorithmName in interface Mac

Returns:

the name of the algorithm the MAC implements.

init

public void init(CipherParameters params)

Description copied from interface: Mac

Initialise the MAC.

Specified by:

init in interface Mac

Parameters:

params - the key and other data required by the MAC.

getMacSize

public int getMacSize()

Description copied from interface: Mac

Return the block size for this MAC (in bytes).

Specified by:

getMacSize in interface Mac

Returns:

the block size for this MAC in bytes.

update

public void update(byte in)

Description copied from interface: Mac

add a single byte to the mac for processing.

Specified by:

update in interface Mac

Parameters:

in - the byte to be processed.

update

public void update(byte[] in,
 int inOff,
 int len)

Specified by:

update in interface Mac

Parameters:

in - the array containing the input.

inOff - the index in the array the data begins at.

len - the length of the input starting at inOff.

doFinal

public int doFinal(byte[] out,
 int outOff)

Description copied from interface: Mac

Compute the final stage of the MAC writing the output to the out parameter.

doFinal leaves the MAC in the same state it was after the last init.

Specified by:

doFinal in interface Mac

Parameters:

out - the array the MAC is to be output to.

outOff - the offset into the out buffer the output is to start at.

reset

public void reset()

Reset the mac generator.

Specified by:

reset in interface Mac
