public class ECCSIKeyGenerationParameters
extends KeyGenerationParameters

Parameters for ECCSI key generation.

This class encapsulates the parameters required for ECCSI (Elliptic Curve Certificateless Signatures for Identity-based encryption) key generation. It holds the elliptic curve domain parameters and computes the key pair components used in ECCSI.

The secret component is generated randomly and reduced modulo , while is derived from by multiplying the generator point.

                                    X9ECParameters params,
                                    Digest digest,
                                    byte[] id)
Constructs an instance of with the specified source of randomness, elliptic curve parameters, digest algorithm, and identifier.

Parameters:
random - the source of randomness.
params - the elliptic curve parameters (in X9.62 format) providing the curve, order, and generator.
digest - the digest algorithm to be used.
id - the identifier associated with the key generation (e.g. a user or device ID).
