Class SDitHSigner

java.lang.Object
  org.bouncycastle.pqc.crypto.sdith.SDitHSigner

All Implemented Interfaces:

MessageSigner

public class SDitHSigner

extends java.lang.Object

implements MessageSigner

SDitH (Syndrome-Decoding-in-the-Head) signer for the Hypercube variant.

Implements MessageSigner (one-shot whole-message signing) — the signature scheme hashes the message inside the protocol so there is no benefit to a streaming API. Returned signatures are the raw SDitH signature bytes (the reference KAT generator appends the message itself; that concatenation is left to the caller / a JCA wrapper).

Constructor Summary

SDitHSigner()

Method Summary

byte[]	generateSignature(byte[] message) sign the passed in message (usually the output of a hash function).
void	init(boolean forSigning, CipherParameters param) initialise the signer for signature generation or signature verification.
boolean	verifySignature(byte[] message, byte[] signature) verify the message message against the signature value.

Method Detail

init

public void init(boolean forSigning,
                 CipherParameters param)

Description copied from interface: MessageSigner

initialise the signer for signature generation or signature verification.

Specified by:

init in interface MessageSigner

Parameters:

forSigning - true if we are generating a signature, false otherwise.

param - key parameters for signature generation.

generateSignature

public byte[] generateSignature(byte[] message)

Description copied from interface: MessageSigner

sign the passed in message (usually the output of a hash function).

Specified by:

generateSignature in interface MessageSigner

Parameters:

message - the message to be signed.

Returns:

the signature of the message

verifySignature

public boolean verifySignature(byte[] message,
                               byte[] signature)

Description copied from interface: MessageSigner

verify the message message against the signature value.

Specified by:

verifySignature in interface MessageSigner

Parameters:

message - the message that was supposed to have been signed.

signature - the signature of the message
