All Implemented Interfaces:

ExtendedSignature

public final class EcdsaWithSha512Signature
extends EcdsaSignature

The ECDSA signature algorithm with SHA-512 as the underlying hash function.

This implementation calculates the hash internally, thus it is the message itself (being signed or verified) that is passed in through the update() API.

An instance of this algorithm can be obtained using the Java Cryptography Architecture (JCA), by requesting a 'SHA512withECDSA' digital signature from the Entrust cryptographic service provider. This can be done using the following call:

Signature.getInstance("SHA512withECDSA", "Entrust");

FIPS 140-2:

This class is part of the Toolkit's FIPS 140-2 cryptographic module and contains APIs that are considered part of the logical interface to the Toolkit's FIPS 140-2 cryptographic module; refer to the API documentation for further details

Constructor Detail

EcdsaWithSha512Signature

public EcdsaWithSha512Signature()

The constructor; creates a new instance of the SHA512withECDSA digital signature algorithm.

Applications should not use this constructor, instead the signature algorithm should be requested from the appropriate JCA/JCE cryptographic service provider as follows: Signature.getInstance("SHA512withECDSA", "Entrust").

FIPS 140-2:

FIPS Service: Modify Object

This API is part of the logical interface to the Toolkit's FIPS 140-2 cryptographic module; use of this API causes the caller to assume the FIPS 140-2 user role and accesses the following FIPS 140-2 logical interfaces:

• control input interface (API call)
• status output interface (exceptions)
