Standard Names

The Java SE Security API requires and uses a set of standard names for algorithms, certificate and keystore types.

Note that an SE implementation may support additional algorithms that are not defined in this specification. As a best practice, if an algorithm is defined in a subsequent version of this specification and an implementation of an earlier specification supports that algorithm, the implementation should use the standard name of the algorithm that is defined in the subsequent specification. Each SE implementation should also document the algorithms that it supports or adds support for in subsequent update releases. The algorithms may be documented in release notes or in a separate document such as the JDK Security Providers document.

In some cases naming conventions are given for forming names that are not explicitly listed, to facilitate name consistency across provider implementations. Items in angle brackets (such as <digest> and <encryption>) are placeholders to be replaced by a specific message digest, encryption algorithm, or other name.


Note: Standard names are not case-sensitive.


This document includes corresponding lists of standard names relevant to the following security subareas:

CertificateFactory Types

The type in this section can be specified when generating an instance of CertificateFactory.

CertPathBuilder Algorithms

The algorithm in this section can be specified when generating an instance of CertPathBuilder.

Algorithm Name Description
PKIX The PKIX certification path validation algorithm as defined in the ValidationAlgorithm service attribute. The output of CertPathBuilder instances implementing this algorithm is a certification path validated against the PKIX validation algorithm.

CertPath Encodings

The following encodings may be passed to the getEncoded method of CertPath or the generateCertPath(InputStream inStream, String encoding) method of CertificateFactory.

Encoding Description
PKCS7 A PKCS #7 SignedData object, with the only significant field being certificates. In particular, the signature and the contents are ignored. If no certificates are present, a zero-length CertPath is assumed. Warning: PKCS #7 does not maintain the order of certificates in a certification path. This means that if a CertPath is converted to PKCS #7 encoded bytes and then converted back, the order of the certificates may change, potentially rendering the CertPath invalid. Users should be aware of this behavior. See PKCS #7: Cryptographic Message Syntax for details on PKCS7.
PkiPath An ASN.1 DER encoded sequence of certificates, defined as follows:
    PkiPath ::= SEQUENCE OF Certificate
Within the sequence, the order of certificates is such that the subject of the first certificate is the issuer of the second certificate, and so on. Each certificate in PkiPath shall be unique. No certificate may appear more than once in a value of Certificate in PkiPath. The PkiPath format is defined in defect report 279 against X.509 (2000) and is incorporated into Technical Corrigendum 1 (DTC 2) for the ITU-T Recommendation X.509 (2000). See the ITU web site for details.

LDAP A CertStore implementation that fetches certificates and CRLs from an LDAP directory using the schema defined in the LDAPSchema service attribute.

Cipher (Encryption) Algorithms

Cipher Algorithm Names

The following names can be specified as the algorithm component in a transformation when requesting an instance of Cipher.

Advanced Encryption Standard as specified by NIST in FIPS 197. Also known as the Rijndael algorithm by Joan Daemen and Vincent Rijmen, AES is a 128-bit block cipher supporting keys of 128, 192, and 256 bits.

To use the AES cipher with only one valid key size, use the format AES_<n>, where <n> can be 128, 192, or 256.

AESWrap

The AES key wrapping algorithm as described in RFC 3394.

To use the AESWrap cipher with only one valid key size, use the format AESWrap_<n>, where <n> can be 128, 192, or 256.

ARCFOUR A stream cipher believed to be fully interoperable with the RC4 cipher developed by Ron Rivest. For more information, see A Stream Cipher Encryption Algorithm "Arcfour", Internet Draft (expired).
Blowfish The Blowfish block cipher designed by Bruce Schneier.
DES The Digital Encryption Standard as described in FIPS PUB 46-3.
DESede Triple DES Encryption (also known as DES-EDE, 3DES, or Triple-DES). Data is encrypted using the DES algorithm three separate times. It is first encrypted using the first subkey, then decrypted with the second subkey, and encrypted with the third subkey.

ECIES Elliptic Curve Integrated Encryption Scheme
PBEWith<digest>And<encryption> PBEWith<prf>And<encryption> The password-based encryption algorithm found in (PKCS5), using the specified message digest (<digest>) or pseudo-random function (<prf>) and encryption algorithm (<encryption>). Examples:
  • PBEWithMD5AndDES: The password-based encryption algorithm as defined in RSA Laboratories, "PKCS #5: Password-Based Encryption Standard, version 1.5, Nov 1993. Note that this algorithm implies CBC as the cipher mode and PKCS5Padding as the padding scheme and cannot be used with any other cipher modes or padding schemes.
  • PBEWithHmacSHA256AndAES_128: The password-based encryption algorithm as defined in PKCS #5: Password-Based Cryptography Specification, Version 2.1.
RC2 Variable-key-size encryption algorithms developed by Ron Rivest for RSA Data Security, Inc.

Cipher Algorithm Modes

The following names can be specified as the mode component in a transformation when requesting an instance of Cipher.

Algorithm Name Description
NONE No mode.
CBC Cipher Block Chaining Mode, as defined in FIPS PUB 81.
CCM Counter/CBC Mode, as defined in NIST Special Publication SP 800-38C: Recommendation for Block Cipher Modes of Operation: the CCM Mode for Authentication and Confidentiality.
CFB, CFBx Cipher Feedback Mode, as defined in FIPS PUB 81.

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 "DES/CFB8/NoPadding" and "DES/OFB32/PKCS5Padding" transformations. If no such number is specified, a provider-specific default is used. (For example, the SunJCE provider uses a default of 64 bits for DES.) Thus, block ciphers can be turned into byte-oriented stream ciphers by using an 8-bit mode such as CFB8 or OFB8.
CTR A simplification of OFB, Counter mode updates the input block as a counter.
CTS Cipher Text Stealing, as described in Bruce Schneier's book Applied Cryptography-Second Edition, John Wiley and Sons, 1996.
ECB Electronic Codebook Mode, as defined in FIPS PUB 81 (generally this mode should not be used for multiple blocks of data).
GCM Galois/Counter Mode, as defined in NIST Special Publication SP 800-38D Recommendation for Block Cipher Modes of Operation: Galois/Counter Mode (GCM) and GMAC.
OFB, OFBx Output Feedback Mode, as defined in FIPS PUB 81.

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 DES/CFB8/NoPadding and DES/OFB32/PKCS5Padding transformations. If no such number is specified, a provider-specific default is used. (For example, the SunJCE provider uses a default of 64 bits for DES.) Thus, block ciphers can be turned into byte-oriented stream ciphers by using an 8-bit mode such as CFB8 or OFB8.
PCBC Propagating Cipher Block Chaining, as defined by Kerberos V4.

Cipher Algorithm Padding

The following names can be specified as the padding component in a transformation when requesting an instance of Cipher.

Algorithm Name Description
NoPadding No padding.
ISO10126Padding This padding for block ciphers is described in the ISO 10126 standard.
OAEPPadding, OAEPWith<digest>And<mgf>Padding Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding scheme defined in PKCS #1, where <digest> is replaced by the message digest and <mgf> by the mask generation function. Examples: OAEPWithMD5AndMGF1Padding and OAEPWithSHA-512AndMGF1Padding.

If OAEPPadding is used, Cipher objects are initialized with a javax.crypto.spec.OAEPParameterSpec object to supply values needed for OAEPPadding.
PKCS1Padding The padding scheme described in PKCS #1 v2.2, used with the RSA algorithm.
PKCS5Padding The padding scheme described in PKCS #5: Password-Based Cryptography Specification, version 2.1.
SSL3Padding The padding scheme defined in the SSL Protocol Version 3.0, November 18, 1996, section 5.2.3.2 (CBC block cipher):
    block-ciphered struct {
        opaque content[SSLCompressed.length];
        opaque MAC[CipherSpec.hash_size];
        uint8 padding[
            GenericBlockCipher.padding_length];
        uint8 padding_length;
    } GenericBlockCipher;
The size of an instance of a GenericBlockCipher must be a multiple of the block cipher's block length.

The padding length, which is always present, contributes to the padding, which implies that if:
    sizeof(content) + sizeof(MAC) % block_length = 0, 
padding has to be (block_length - 1) bytes long, because of the existence of padding_length.

This makes the padding scheme similar (but not quite) to PKCS5Padding, where the padding length is encoded in the padding (and ranges from 1 to block_length). With the SSL scheme, the sizeof(padding) is encoded in the always present padding_length and therefore ranges from 0 to block_length-1.

Type Description

Service Attributes

A cryptographic service is always associated with a particular algorithm or type.

The attributes in this section are for cryptographic services. The service attributes can be used as filters for selecting providers.

Both the attribute name and value are case-insensitive.

Attribute Description
ImplementedIn Whether the implementation for the cryptographic service is done by software or hardware. The value of this attribute is "software" or "hardware".
KeySize The maximum key size that the provider supports for the cryptographic service.
LDAPSchema The name of the specification that defines the LDAP schema that an implementation of an LDAP CertStore uses to retrieve certificates and CRLs. The format and semantics of this attribute is the same as described for the ValidationAlgorithm attribute. All LDAP implementations of CertStore should provide a value for this attribute.
SupportedKeyClasses The list of key classes supported by the cryptographic service. The value is a list of fully qualified class names separated by vertical bars (|). For example, when a Cipher service provides this attribute, the value indicates the kinds of keys that callers should use.
SupportedKeyFormats The list of key formats supported by the cryptographic service. The value is a list of key format names separated by vertical bars (|). Possible key format names include RAW, X.509, and PKCS#8.
SupportedModes The supported modes of the service's provider. The value is a list of cipher algorithm mode names separated by vertical bars (|). Possible valid mode names include those listed in the section Cipher Algorithm Modes.
SupportedPaddings The supported paddings of the service's provider. The value is a list of padding names separated by vertical bars (|). Possible valid padding names include those listed in the section Cipher Algorithm Padding.
ValidationAlgorithm The name of the specification that defines the certification path validation algorithm that an implementation of CertPathBuilder or CertPathValidator supports. RFCs should be specified as "RFC#" (ex: "RFC3280") and Internet Drafts as the name of the draft (ex: "draft-ietf-pkix-rfc2560bis-01.txt"). Values for this attribute that are specified as selection criteria to the Security.getProviders method will be compared using the String.equalsIgnoreCase method. All PKIX implementations of CertPathBuilder and CertPathValidator should provide a value for this attribute.

For example:

   map.put("KeyPairGenerator.DSA",
            "sun.security.provider.DSAKeyPairGenerator");
        map.put("KeyPairGenerator.DSA KeySize", "1024");

SHA512withECDSA
(ECDSA)
The ECDSA signature algorithms as defined in ANSI X9.62.

Note:"ECDSA" is an ambiguous name for the "SHA1withECDSA" algorithm and should not be used. The formal name "SHA1withECDSA" should be used instead.

<digest>with<encryption> Use this to form a name for a signature algorithm with a particular message digest (such as MD2 or MD5) and algorithm (such as RSA or DSA), just as was done for the explicitly defined standard names in this section (MD2withRSA, and so on).

For the new signature schemes defined in PKCS #1 v2.2, for which the <digest>with<encryption> form is insufficient, <digest>with<encryption>and<mgf> can be used to form a name. Here, <mgf> should be replaced by a mask generation function such as MGF1. Example: MD5withRSAandMGF1.

JSSE Cipher Suite Names

The following list contains the standard JSSE cipher suite names. Over time, various groups have added additional cipher suites to the SSL/TLS namespace. Some JSSE cipher suite names were defined before TLSv1.0 was finalized, and were therefore given the SSL_ prefix. The names mentioned in the TLS RFCs prefixed with TLS_ are functionally equivalent to the JSSE cipher suites prefixed with SSL_.

* TLS_EMPTY_RENEGOTIATION_INFO_SCSV is a new pseudo-cipher suite to support RFC 5746. See Transport Layer Security (TLS) Renegotiation Issue for more information.

Additional JSSE Standard Names

The keyType parameter passed to the chooseClientAlias, chooseServerAlias, getClientAliases, and getServerAliases methods of X509KeyManager specifies the public key types. Each row of the table that follows lists the standard name that should be used for keyType, given the specified certificate type.

RSA RSA
DSA DSA
DH_RSA Diffie-Hellman with RSA signature
DH_DSA Diffie-Hellman with DSA signature
EC Elliptic Curve
EC_EC Elliptic Curve with ECDSA signature
EC_RSA Elliptic Curve with RSA signature
RSASSA-PSS RSASSA-PSS

The protocols parameter passed to the setEnabledProtocols method of SSLSocket specifies the protocol versions to be enabled for use on the connection. The table that follows lists the standard names that can be passed to setEnabledProtocols or that may be returned by the SSLSocket getSupportedProtocols and getEnabledProtocols methods.

Name Protocol
SSLv2 SSL version 2 protocol
SSLv3 SSL version 3 protocol
TLSv1 TLS version 1.0 protocol (defined in RFC 2246)
TLSv1.1 TLS version 1.1 protocol (defined in RFC 4346)
TLSv1.2 TLS version 1.2 protocol (defined in RFC 5246)
SSLv2Hello Currently, the SSLv3, TLSv1, and TLSv1.1 protocols allow you to send SSLv3, TLSv1, and TLSv1.1 hellos encapsulated in an SSLv2 format hello. For more details on the reasons for allowing this compatibility in these protocols, see Appendix E in the appropriate RFCs (previously listed).

Note that some SSL/TLS servers do not support the v2 hello format and require that client hellos conform to the SSLv3 or TLSv1 client hello formats.

The SSLv2Hello option controls the SSLv2 encapsulation. If SSLv2Hello is disabled on the client, then all outgoing messages will conform to the SSLv3/TLSv1 client hello format. If SSLv2Hello is disabled on the server, then all incoming messages must conform to the SSLv3/TLSv1 client hello format.

The authType parameter passed to the checkClientTrusted and checkServerTrusted methods of X509TrustManager indicates the authentication type. The table that follows specifies what standard names should be used for the client or server certificate chains.

Client or Server Certificate Chain Authentication Type Standard Name
Client Determined by the actual certificate used. For instance, if RSAPublicKey is used, the authType should be "RSA".
Server The key exchange algorithm portion of the cipher suites represented as a String, such as "RSA" or "DHE_DSS". Note: For some exportable cipher suites, the key exchange algorithm is determined at runtime during the handshake. For instance, for TLS_RSA_EXPORT_WITH_RC4_40_MD5, the authType should be "RSA_EXPORT" when an ephemeral RSA key is used for the key exchange, and "RSA" when the key from the server certificate is used. Or it can take the value "UNKNOWN".

The JDK 8 release supports endpoint identification algorithms. The algorithm name can be passed to the setEndpointIdentificationAlgorithm() method of javax.net.ssl.SSLParameters. The following table shows the currently recognized names.

Implementation Requirements

This section defines the security algorithm requirements for JDK 8 implementations. These requirements are intended to improve the interoperability of JDK 8 implementations and applications that use these algorithms.

Note that the requirements in this section are not a measure of the strength or security of the algorithm. For example, recent advances in cryptanalysis have found weaknesses in the strength of the MD5 MessageDigest algorithm. It is your responsibility to determine whether the algorithm meets the security requirements of your application.

Every implementation of the JDK 8 platform must support the specified algorithms in the table that follows. These requirements do not apply to third party providers. Consult the release documentation for your implementation to see if any other algorithms are supported.
