Information about kura crypto API [message #1750567]

Hello,

I came accross this Kura API for cryptography but can't find documentation about it.

what kind of encryption does it implement? AES-128?
and in which mode CTR? ECB?

I did not find also how to use. For example when I receive an encrypted data how can I set the key so that I will be able to decrypted?

Thanks,
Best
Sabrina

Hi Sabrina,

I assume you have looked over the API [1], correct? This should provide usage information. If you want details on the implementation, you can always view the source [2]. If you need more details than this, let me know. Keep in mind, the secret key is kept in plain text in the source code, so if you plan on using this service you will want to specify your own secret key through the system property "org.eclipse.kura.core.crypto.secretKey".

Thanks,
