SecurityModule (plugin-api 1.4.6-RC2 API)

```
public interface SecurityModule
```
Provides a generic interface for classes which wrap/hide a cryptographic private key. This interface ensures cryptographic functions required by Ethereum are available to the application at large, without releasing the content of the private key.

```
Signature sign(org.apache.tuweni.bytes.Bytes32 dataHash)
        throws SecurityModuleException
```
    Parameters:
    
    dataHash - The Keccack hash of a set of data, which is to be signed.
    
    Returns:
    
    the signature (R, S) generated by signing the hash with the node key
    
    Throws:
    
    SecurityModuleException - if sign fails
  - getPublicKey
```
PublicKey getPublicKey()
                throws SecurityModuleException
```
    Returns:
    
    the public key associated with the key stored behind this interface.
    
    Throws:
    
    SecurityModuleException - if getPublicKey fails
  - calculateECDHKeyAgreement
```
org.apache.tuweni.bytes.Bytes32 calculateECDHKeyAgreement(PublicKey partyKey)
                                                   throws SecurityModuleException
```
    Parameters:
    
    partyKey - the key with which an agreement is to be created.
    
    Returns:
    
    The bytes forming the agreement
    
    Throws:
    
    SecurityModuleException - if calculateECDHKeyAgreement fails
