Supported algorithms
The IBMCAC provider supports a range of KeyPairGenerator, Signature, Cipher, and Keystore algorithms.
The supported algorithms are shown in the following table:
Algorithm | Algorithm Name | Description |
---|---|---|
KeyPairGenerator |
|
Generates RSA key pairs. The default keysize is 2048. |
Signature |
|
Creates and validates signatures using various message digest and encryption algorithms, as specified in the algorithm name. |
Cipher |
|
Performs RSA encryption and decryption. |
Keystore |
|
Windows-MY is the keystore type that identifies the native Windows MY keystore. This keystore contains the private keys and the associated certificate chains for a user. The Windows-ROOT keystore type identifies the native Windows ROOT keystore. This keystore contains the certificate of the root certificate authorities and other self-signed trusted certificates. |
SecureRandon |
|
The native pseudo-random number generator. |
