Field Detail

DEFAULT_SECURE_RANDOM

public static final SecureRandom DEFAULT_SECURE_RANDOM

JJWT's default SecureRandom number generator. This RNG is initialized using the JVM default as follows:

 static {
     DEFAULT_SECURE_RANDOM = new SecureRandom();
     DEFAULT_SECURE_RANDOM.nextBytes(new byte[64]);
 }
 

nextBytes is called to force the RNG to initialize itself if not already initialized. The byte array is not used and discarded immediately for garbage collection.

Method Detail

generateKeyPair

public static KeyPair generateKeyPair()

Generates a new secure-random key pair assuming strength enough for the SignatureAlgorithm.ES512 algorithm. This is a convenience method that immediately delegates to generateKeyPair(SignatureAlgorithm) using SignatureAlgorithm.ES512 as the method argument.

Returns:

a new secure-randomly-generated key pair assuming strength enough for the SignatureAlgorithm.ES512 algorithm.

generateKeyPair

public static KeyPair generateKeyPair(SignatureAlgorithm alg)

Generates a new secure-random key pair of sufficient strength for the specified Elliptic Curve SignatureAlgorithm (must be one of ES256, ES384 or ES512) using JJWT's default SecureRandom instance. This is a convenience method that immediately delegates to generateKeyPair(SignatureAlgorithm, SecureRandom).

Parameters:

alg - the algorithm indicating strength, must be one of ES256, ES384 or ES512

Returns:

a new secure-randomly generated key pair of sufficient strength for the specified SignatureAlgorithm (must be one of ES256, ES384 or ES512) using JJWT's default SecureRandom instance.

Generates a new secure-random key pair of sufficient strength for the specified Elliptic Curve SignatureAlgorithm (must be one of ES256, ES384 or ES512) using the specified SecureRandom random number generator. This is a convenience method that immediately delegates to generateKeyPair(String, String, SignatureAlgorithm, SecureRandom) using "EC" as the jcaAlgorithmName.

Parameters:

alg - alg the algorithm indicating strength, must be one of ES256, ES384 or ES512

random - the SecureRandom generator to use during key generation.

Returns:

a new secure-randomly generated key pair of sufficient strength for the specified SignatureAlgorithm (must be one of ES256, ES384 or ES512) using the specified SecureRandom random number generator.
