Package org.apache.shiro.crypto.cipher

package org.apache.shiro.crypto.cipher

Cryptography Cipher and Hashing components that greatly simplify the JDK's cryptography concepts and add additional convenient behavior.

The most important interface in this package is the CipherService interface, which allows one to encrypt and decrypt sensitive data.

Class	Description
AbstractSymmetricCipherService	Base abstract class for supporting symmetric key cipher algorithms.
AesCipherService	CipherService using the AES cipher algorithm for all encryption, decryption, and key operations.
BlowfishCipherService	CipherService using the Blowfish cipher algorithm for all encryption, decryption, and key operations.
ByteSourceBroker	ByteSourceBroker holds an encrypted value to decrypt it on demand.
ByteSourceUser	ByteSourceBroker.useBytes(ByteSourceUser) method requires ByteSourceUser argument, and developers should implement how we use the byte arrays in our code-base.
CipherService	A CipherService uses a cryptographic algorithm called a Cipher to convert an original input source using a key to an uninterpretable format.
DefaultBlockCipherService	Base abstract class for block cipher algorithms.
JcaCipherService	Abstract CipherService implementation utilizing Java's JCA APIs.
OperationMode	A cipher mode of operation directs a cipher algorithm how to convert data during the encryption or decryption process.
PaddingScheme	A CipherPaddingScheme represents well-known padding schemes supported by JPA providers in a type-safe manner.
SimpleByteSourceBroker	A simple implementation that maintains cipher service, ciphertext and key for decrypting it later.
