Public Constructors

public CBCBlockCipherMac (BlockCipher cipher)

create a standard MAC based on a CBC 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.

public CBCBlockCipherMac (BlockCipher cipher, BlockCipherPadding padding)

create a standard MAC based on a CBC 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.
padding the padding to be used to complete the last block.

public CBCBlockCipherMac (BlockCipher cipher, int macSizeInBits)

create a standard MAC based on a block cipher with the size of the MAC been given in bits. This class uses CBC mode as the basis for the MAC generation.

Note: the size of the MAC must be at least 24 bits (FIPS Publication 81), or 16 bits if being used as a data authenticator (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.

public CBCBlockCipherMac (BlockCipher cipher, int macSizeInBits, BlockCipherPadding padding)

create a standard MAC based on a block cipher with the size of the MAC been given in bits. This class uses CBC mode as the basis for the MAC generation.

Note: the size of the MAC must be at least 24 bits (FIPS Publication 81), or 16 bits if being used as a data authenticator (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.
padding the padding to be used to complete the last block.

Public Methods

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

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.

Parameters
out the array the MAC is to be output to.
outOff the offset into the out buffer the output is to start at.

public String getAlgorithmName ()

Return the name of the algorithm the MAC implements.

Returns
  • the name of the algorithm the MAC implements.

public int getMacSize ()

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

Returns
  • the block size for this MAC in bytes.

public void init (CipherParameters params)

Initialise the MAC.

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

public void reset ()

Reset the mac generator.

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

public void update (byte in)

add a single byte to the mac for processing.

Parameters
in the byte to be processed.
