Class UOVSigner

java.lang.Object
  org.bouncycastle.pqc.crypto.uov.UOVSigner

All Implemented Interfaces:

MessageSigner

public class UOVSigner

extends java.lang.Object

implements MessageSigner

Unbalanced Oil and Vinegar (UOV) signer, classic variant. One-shot MessageSigner: the message is absorbed in full inside generateSignature / verifySignature, matching the reference pqov implementation.

Constructor Summary

UOVSigner()

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.

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
