Hi, Sorry I did not understand the API. You use PBE as password to generate the key which could be 128 bit or 256bit. The keygen utility generates a random password string which like a regular password is used to creates the key string. You store the IV and other AES parameters in the output AES fil...

Hi, The API is called es.vocali.util.AESCrypt. It appears it does not work with strings on in and out files. Also the constructor says it takes a password string. Appears to be using a password to encrypt and decrypt the contents of a file. So it appears a keyfile is not supported by Java is this co...

Hi,

Thanks for the reply but can the Java API use a keyfile that I generated with the Linux command line?

Hi,

Thanks for the reply so where is the AES key that is used with the IV. Is it embedded in the API?

Hi,

I see the API is designed to work with encrypting and decrypting files. Can it also work with strings. If so can you point me to the API documentation for Java.

Thanks,

Hi, I see the keyfile format and it says part of it is encrypted. What is encrypted and what is not encrypted? So for AES a key, IV, key size, IV size, block mode is needed. I assume all of these are in the generated keyfile using genkey. Please send details. I am trying to figure out if these field...

Hi,

I would like to use a generated keyfile (keygen) with the Java API to encrypt and decrypt is this possible? If so can you send an example.

Also is there a way to generate the keyfile with the Java API?

Hi, We want to use AES Crypt on all plaforms so it would be really helpful to do this on Windows. Since the code is there on UNIX it should not be that hard you may also want to port the keygen. But first make windows use the -K. I do not like PBE (Password Based Encryption). Since the person is usi...

Hi, I have created a secret key and encrypted the file with the key on linux machine.I then tried to decrypt the file on the same machine using this secret key with the below command .The decryption is working fine. aescrypt -d -k secret.key /home/myhome/encryption_test/test_file.aes However when I ...
