public class Cipher extends Object
In order to create a Cipher object, the application calls the
Cipher's getInstance
method, and passes the name of the
requested transformation to it. Optionally, the name of a provider
may be specified.
A transformation is a string that describes the operation (or set of operations) to be performed on the given input, to produce some output. A transformation always includes the name of a cryptographic algorithm (e.g., AES), and may be followed by a feedback mode and padding scheme.
A transformation is of the form:
(in the latter case, provider-specific default values for the mode and padding scheme are used). For example, the following is a valid transformation:
Cipher c = Cipher.getInstance("AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding");Using modes such as
CFB
and OFB
, block
ciphers can encrypt data in units smaller than the cipher's actual
block size. When requesting such a mode, you may optionally specify
the number of bits to be processed at a time by appending this number
to the mode name as shown in the "AES/CFB8/NoPadding
" and
"AES/OFB32/PKCS5Padding
" transformations. If no such
number is specified, a provider-specific default is used.
Thus, block ciphers can be turned into byte-oriented stream ciphers by
using an 8 bit mode such as CFB8 or OFB8.
Modes such as Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD)
provide authenticity assurances for both confidential data and
Additional Associated Data (AAD) that is not encrypted. (Please see
RFC 5116 for more
information on AEAD and AEAD algorithms such as GCM/CCM.) Both
confidential and AAD data can be used when calculating the
authentication tag (similar to a Mac
). This tag is appended
to the ciphertext during encryption, and is verified on decryption.
AEAD modes such as GCM/CCM perform all AAD authenticity calculations
before starting the ciphertext authenticity calculations. To avoid
implementations having to internally buffer ciphertext, all AAD data
must be supplied to GCM/CCM implementations (via the updateAAD
methods) before the ciphertext is processed (via
the update
and doFinal
methods).
Note that GCM mode has a uniqueness requirement on IVs used in encryption with a given key. When IVs are repeated for GCM encryption, such usages are subject to forgery attacks. Thus, after each encryption operation using GCM mode, callers should re-initialize the cipher objects with GCM parameters which has a different IV value.
GCMParameterSpec s = ...; cipher.init(..., s); // If the GCM parameters were generated by the provider, it can // be retrieved by: // cipher.getParameters().getParameterSpec(GCMParameterSpec.class); cipher.updateAAD(...); // AAD cipher.update(...); // Multi-part update cipher.doFinal(...); // conclusion of operation // Use a different IV value for every encryption byte[] newIv = ...; s = new GCMParameterSpec(s.getTLen(), newIv); cipher.init(..., s); ...Every implementation of the Java platform is required to support the following standard

.
If this cipher requires any algorithm parameters that cannot be
derived from the given key
, the underlying cipher
implementation is supposed to generate the required parameters itself
