This package provides the classes and interfaces for cryptographic applications implementing algorithms for encryption, decryption, or
key agreement.
This exception is thrown when a
Cipher
operating in
an AEAD mode (such as GCM/CCM) is unable to verify the supplied
authentication tag.
A CipherInputStream is composed of an InputStream and a Cipher so
that read() methods return data that are read in from the
underlying InputStream but have been additionally processed by the
Cipher.
A CipherOutputStream is composed of an OutputStream and a Cipher so
that write() methods first process the data before writing them out
to the underlying OutputStream.
This class provides the functionality of an exemption mechanism, examples
of which are
key recovery
,
key weakening
, and
key escrow
.
