Using RSA encryption with Java
With the increase awareness to security the demand for securing data is rising. Fortunately Java provides pretty good tools that can help developers encrypt and decrypt data.
One of the most popular encryption is called RSA encryption. Named after its inventors, Ron Rivest, Adi Shamir and Leonard Adleman, RSA encryption transforms the number “char” into the number “cipher” with the formula
cipher = char^e (mod n)
The numbers e and n are the two numbers you create and publish. They are your “public key.” The number char can be simply the digital value of a block of ASCII characters. The formula says: multiply the number char by itself e times, then divide the result by the number n and save only the remainder. The remainder that we have called cipher is the encrypted representation of char.
Using the two numbers you have published, anyone can scramble a message and send it to you. You are the only one who can unscramble it; not even the sender of the message can decrypt the ciphertext.
Standard Java 2 distribution includes security provider support for generation of RSA digital signatures, but does NOT contain a provider implementation for generating RSA encrypted data. An extra provider must be added to obtain this capability from standard Java 2, such as the Bouncy Castle Provider.
Since I couldn’t find any good examples that use Java with RSA, we’ll build a nice RSAEncryptUtil class that you can use as a reference for using RSA encryption (you can download the full source code here).
The first thing we need to do is to define the algorithm that we want to use.
protected static final String ALGORITHM = "RSA";
Then as stated before we’ll need to add Bouncy Castle as our RSA provider. In order to do that we’ll write an Init method for our class
/**
* Init java security to add BouncyCastle as an RSA provider
*/
public static void init()
{Security.addProvider(new BouncyCastleProvider());
}
To generate what is called private and public keys, Java provides us with a simple to use KeyPairGenerator class. The java.security.KeyPairGenerator generates the two keys that are returned in a java.security.KeyPair object.
/**
* Generate key which contains a pair of privae and public key using 1024 bytes
* @return key pair
* @throws NoSuchAlgorithmException
*/
public static KeyPair generateKey() throws NoSuchAlgorithmException
{KeyPairGenerator keyGen = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance(ALGORITHM);
keyGen.initialize(1024);
KeyPair key = keyGen.generateKeyPair();
return key;}

Thanks a lot!
It was very usefull for me. I had a problem encryting long bytes arrays, this article solved my problens; which were that I didn’t have a copyBytes() method to pass full byte arrays. How ever I tryed to encript a byte array which was not full complete and then , when I tryed to decript it I had exceptions with block size padding and similar.

hello i am trying to use RSA in java
i this is the code i have written:
import java.io.*;
import java.security.*;
import javax.crypto.*;
class enc {
public static void main (String[] args) throws NoSuchAlgorithmException,
InvalidKeyException, IllegalBlockSizeException, NoSuchProviderException,
BadPaddingException, NoSuchPaddingException {
/* Generate a RSA key pair */
KeyPairGenerator keyGen = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance(”RSA”);
SecureRandom random = SecureRandom.getInstance(”SHA1PRNG”, “SUN”);
keyGen.initialize(1024, random);
KeyPair pair = keyGen.generateKeyPair();
PrivateKey priv = pair.getPrivate();
PublicKey pub = pair.getPublic();
//System.out.println(”Public is” + pub);
//System.out.println(”Private is” + priv);
/* Create the cipher */
Cipher rsaCipher = Cipher.getInstance(”RSA”);
// Initialize the cipher for encryption
rsaCipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, pub);
// Cleartext
byte[] cleartext = null;
cleartext = “This is Bilal”.getBytes();
//byte[] cleartext = “This is Bilal”.getBytes();
//String cleartext = “This is just an example”;
System.out.println(”the original cleartext is: ” + cleartext.toString());
//System.out.println(”the original cleartext is: ” + cleartext);
// Encrypt the cleartext
byte[] ciphertext = null;
ciphertext = rsaCipher.doFinal(cleartext);
//byte[] ciphertext = rsaCipher.doFinal(cleartext);
//String ciphertext = rsaCipher.doFinal(cleartext);
System.out.println(”the encrypted text is: ” + ciphertext.toString());
// Initialize the same cipher for decryption
rsaCipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, priv);
// Decrypt the ciphertext
byte[] cleartext1 = rsaCipher.doFinal(ciphertext);
//String cleartext1 = rsaCipher.doFinal(ciphertext);
System.out.println(”the final cleartext is: ” + cleartext1.toString());
//System.out.println(”the final cleartext is: ” + cleartext1);
}
}
when i am getting the output of plain and encrypted text, it is totally different
this is the output i have:
the original cleartext is: [B@18eb9e6
the encrypted text is: [B@1ca318a
the final cleartext is: [B@17a8913
would u help ma plz
thanks

You need to replace the line
Cipher rsaCipher = Cipher.getInstance("RSA");with
Cipher rsaCipher = Cipher.getInstance("RSA/ECB/PKCS1Padding");December 10th, 2004 at 12:05 am
But, I also face this problem…
I cannot decrypt file to original file…..I get the original file then output encrypted file….then i get encrypted file to do decryption..
the output decrypted file is all unread characters….
Anybody can solve my problem?? Thankyou very much!!
July 17th, 2005 at 7:07 pm
Your problem isn’t the cryptography part of your code, it’s your implentation for printing the byte data on screen. Using the toString() for a byte array will print the memory address of the array not the contents. If you want to see the contents of the byte array you have to use a loop and iterate through the elements and print them individually. I checked your code and it works perfectly.
August 5th, 2005 at 2:27 am
But I also face this problem.
I want the contents of the byte array to be displayed for the above code.
Anybody can solve my problem??
Thank you very much in advance!!

Hi ,
This code is really help me lot. i have one more doubt.
How do i generated public key and private key to store it in different files.
January 3rd, 2006 at 10:05 am
This is a very nice example.
I have one problem using the keys generated using the example code:
The keys works fine for encryption, decryption, but I cannot use it for digital signature, when I do:
Signature dsig = Signature.getInstance(priKey.getAlgorithm());
I got the following exception:
java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: RSA Signature not available
at java.security.Security.getEngineClassName(Unknown Source)
at java.security.Security.getEngineClassName(Unknown Source)
at java.security.Security.getImpl(Unknown Source)
at java.security.Signature.getInstance(Unknown Source)
Did I miss anything? Thanks.
January 5th, 2006 at 7:39 pm
doubt, methods getPublicKeyFromString and getPrivateKeyFromString have problems:
Caused by: java.security.spec.InvalidKeySpecException: Unknown key spec: Could not decode public key from BER.
Can U please help me?

Hello,
In order to run this example, “iaik_jce.jar” is needed.
How can I find this jar file?
January 24th, 2006 at 8:28 am
try this:
new String(plaintext, “8859_1″);
//where byte[] cleartext = null;
February 7th, 2006 at 6:31 am
this 4 u da(mzhou)
KeyPairGenerator keygen=KeyPairGenerator.getInstance(”DSA”);
KeyPair pair=keygen.generateKeyPair();
Signature sig=Signature.getInstance(”SHA/DSA”);
PrivateKey priv=pair.getPrivate();
PublicKey pub=pair.getPublic();
first u can use this code,
the remaining part of the code can be get from java 2 API Specification for cryptography
Thanks daaaaaaaaaaaa

thanks for the artikel,
i would like to generate keypair on desktop and transfer the private key to smartcard while i keep the public key on desktop.
Then i ‘m encrypt some data on desktop using the public key and transfer the enrypted data to smartcard. On smartcard , javacard has provide the cryptography library for decrypting the encrypted data using it’s private key .
Could it be done, coz i’m using different platform on desktop and smartcard?.
On desktop i;m using boucycastle jce provider to generate the key pair and using the public the encrypt data, then on the smartcard i’m using javacard library that provide by sun to decrypt the data using private key the generated from desktop.
sorry for my english, i hope u understand what i wrote…
February 23rd, 2006 at 8:58 pm
I don’t know if this will work, but in theory it should work as long as you use the same algorithm. The only way to know for sure is to try.
February 26th, 2006 at 1:50 pm
thanks for the code,

April 5th, 2006 at 5:02 pm
You can find the BouncyCastle link on the first page and the packaged java files on the last page of this article.
This code is not an application that you can run, you need to write your own application and use this code as a library to handle encryption.
April 8th, 2006 at 9:57 pm
I am writing up my own program which does the same thing as yours, except it can store the keys in a file. I can store the keys easily, but I cannot retrieve them because each key need be initialized with a special constructor, and so a key object seems unable to take any arguments. Is there a way to get around this?

You need to add a provider. Java does not provide RSA Algorithm, this is why you need the BouncyCastle
September 15th, 2006 at 1:22 am
thanks anonymous…
But i did program using BouncyCastle. it show some errors.
” cannot resolve symbol : BoucyCastleProvider”.
even though BouncyCastleProvider is already existed in my system.
and if i used this BouncyCastleProvider, it shows error while i am compiling this program
what should i do?

this artile is very helpfull to me
but i have some doubts like
can we encrypt with either publik or private key and decrypt with the other
and can we do encryption on a file more than one time with different keys
please help me
thanks in advance
October 18th, 2006 at 9:34 am
The answer to both questions is yes, although I’m not 100% sure about switching the private and public keys roles

Hey guys,
Thanks for code…
I want to encrypt my data by the key in /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key.pub and decrypt it by the key provided in /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key
but they are String … how can I cast it into Publickey and Privatekey object type. and how about the format… are they in X509 certificate format??
anyone has any idea?
Thanks in advance for your reply!!
Amir.
November 12th, 2006 at 4:20 am
Sorry the files are ssh_host_rsa_key and ssh_host_rsa_key.pub !!!
November 12th, 2006 at 8:23 am
Following to my question, I used your code and use the function so called ” getPublicKeyFromString”. the problem is the program is stucked on the line
PublicKey publicKey = keyFactory.generatePublic(publicKeySpec);
and after that it is exiting with no error!!!! I have no idea … have you chaeked that before? and DO you have any idea??
Thanks,
Amir.
November 21st, 2006 at 8:02 am
I hope you can help me with a problem. I am using the Public Key to encrypt a unique ID Number. I then store the public key as a string. When i encrypt the same text with the same public key, i get different results, therefore it is impossible for me to use the ID Number as once its encrypted i cant find it without de-crypting. I am doing something wrong? Should it create the same encrypted string from the same public key?
Hope this makes sense.

Hi ,
I looked at your article and looks like I just what I need :
I am looking for RSA implemetation using Java . Can any one help me in finding one that I should be able to use out of the box .?Apart from that I also want to just port the encryption logic from java to java script. So if I get the same solution in java script than nothing like it .
June 19th, 2007 at 9:36 am
As for the out of the box library you can use the Bouncy Castle Provider as noted in the article. I don’t know of any javascript implementations (I never needed one)
July 10th, 2007 at 4:44 am
I am using the RSA to encrypt a string. When i encrypt the same text with the same public key, i get different results each time, thus, there is no way to compare encrypted text unless they are decrypted back. Anyone has idea what to do to solve this issue!!!
Thanks

Confused
January 15th, 2008 at 8:49 pm
Please post the corect code!!! I`m so confused……
January 25th, 2008 at 11:16 pm
Hi i am doing a program for digital signature, through implementing RSA as a basis for the algorithm. I want to know how to hav a fixed private key and a public key for the program rather than genorating a new one everytime..
January 27th, 2008 at 1:21 am
Just store the key in a database or file, and use it next time
January 28th, 2008 at 8:05 am
I have singed a public key using Signature class like the following
Signature sig = Signature.getInstance(”SHA1withRSA”);
sig.initSign(priKey);
sig.update(msg.getBytes());
byte[] b = sig.sign();
then in another application I need to get the hash value included in the signature i.e. in b; to compare it with the hash value of the original message before the signature. But when I decrypt the signature using the public key to get the hash value and compare it with the original hash value THEY ARE NOT THE SAME!!
I would appriciate it if anyone could point out the problem…
Thanks in advance

You can NOT do cleartext1.toString() - this is a byte array, you’ll need to convert the byte[] to String. Example: String theText = new String(cleartext1);

Hi Anonymous,
sorry to say but before posting this message I was modifying this code and this went as it is here. I realized this mistake but I didn’t know how to modify my post !
The cipher object should be using same parameters in getInstance while encrypting/decrypting and I have done it but it still gives the same error.
Any other clue ?

im working with j2me …
for encypting sms im using RSA
how do i let other user know about my public key ??
April 13th, 2008 at 12:43 am
You just publish the key anyway you want, usually create a page where users can download your public key
April 13th, 2008 at 9:36 am
thnx for ur reply ..
u r too good man
but
i m not understandin this concept perfectly…
i mean how to generate public n private key
shall i take just two random keys ??
im using paswword for protecting msg.
how to use that password two generate public n private key??
plz help me out …
April 15th, 2008 at 2:02 am
Password and keys are two different things. If you use a password then you don’t need to use keys. Usually a key is something that you generate automatically, give the public key to your users via file or a BASE64 string, and keep the private key to yourself so you can decrypt the messages from your users
May 11th, 2008 at 12:40 pm
How would you send the BASE64 encoded string over the network to another host using a socket connection. I have been trying to do this with no luck as I always get a type mismatch.

Hello Aviran. I am looking for help in coding the following in Java. Kindly assist .
a sample application which implements:
• Two principals A and B
• An Authentication Server
Two scenarios should be coded. In each instance separate processes should be
established to execute on separate machines using TCP or UDP:
• Mutual authentication and key exchange based on the use of the
Authentication Server (where each of the principals A and B share a
master key with the AS).
• Mutual authentication and key exchange based on the use of Public Keys,
where A and B each have a public and private key pair. You may assume
that the public key of the other party is available locally on a “public key” ring / store.
I will appreciate any assistance offered. Thanks

I m getting the following problem whil running a java program.
I have installed JDK 1.5 in my system and set my class path accordingly.While compilling a program it is being compiled well,but wile trying to run it,it is showing the error
“Exception in thread “main” java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: milan (Unsupported major.minor version 49.0)”
Then I checked Javac -version and it is showing java 1.3 and for Java version it is java 1.5…..But in my system i dont have java 1.3….
so please help me in resolving this problem…Thanks in advance..
July 16th, 2008 at 6:21 am
This is not java problem. This usually happens because of a classpath error. Recompile all your classes and make sure your JRE and JDK are the same version,

Hello,
I have the following problem.I am using this example.I generate keys of 2048.When I do the first encryption I get a byte[] of 256.And I want to do a second encryption but I get that too much data block.I tried to make a new array of 250 but I get the same message.Is the padding necessary in this case??How to do it??Please any help….
February 2nd, 2009 at 4:04 am
Block size should be 245. 2048/8 - 11 = 245
February 3rd, 2009 at 10:08 am
I do the following:
byte[] rawstring = “ADASDADS”.getBytes(”UTF-8″);
byte [] temp = RSA_ED.encrypt(rawstring, …getPrivate().getEncoded(),1);
byte [] temp2 = RSA_ED.encrypt(temp,….getPublic().getEncoded() ,2);
byte [] temp3 = RSA_ED.decrypt(temp2,….getPrivate().getEncoded(),1 );
byte [] temp4 = RSA_ED.decrypt(temp3, ….getPublic().getEncoded(),2);
RSA_ED is my clas with your methods.
With 2048 keys.And in the second encryption I use no padding.Sometimes I get:input too large for RSA cipher
But not always.Why?I have to do a sign and encrypt procedure.May you tell me how to do this?If I break the blocks how to do the decryption?
I read the http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=532116&messageID=2568882#2568882 but it says to use bigger key.
February 4th, 2009 at 3:36 am
If you’ll download the code I attached from the above article you can see an example of a method to encrypt a file. Basically you break a file into blocks and encrypt each block. You do decryption the same way (just download the code and you’ll see both methods.
Just so you know RSA is not an optimal way to encrypt large amount of data. If you plan to do so it is better if you use AES encryption for the data and RSA to encrypt the AES key.

Hello,
Nice…
File decryption fails when using a key of bit size 2048 & 4096 to encrypt/decrypt. File encryption works ok. The file size doesn’t seem to matter. I’m running some tests hence the large keys… Also know that symmetric encryption is better for files..
See the exception thrown below:

Hi,
As part of one of my projects I should encrypt a given file with the thawte public key. The certificate is valid. So I use the following code to encrypt the input file:
int readed;
byte[] readBytes = new byte[117];
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(”path to der file”);
BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(fis);
CertificateFactory cf = CertificateFactory.getInstance(”X.509″);
Certificate cer = cf.generateCertificate(bis);
RSAPublicKey publicKey = (RSAPublicKey)cer.getPublicKey();
FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream(”output file”);
FileInputStream inFile = new FileInputStream(”the file to be encrypted”);
Cipher rsa = Cipher.getInstance(”RSA”);
rsa.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, publicKey);
while ((readed = inFile.read(readBytes)) != -1)
{
fileOutputStream.write(rsa.doFinal(readBytes));
}
bis.close();
fis.close();
inFile.close();
fileOutputStream.flush();
fileOutputStream.close();
My problem is that if I run the encryption twice, the generated results are not one and the same.
Can you help me with the problem?

–
You will need BouncyCastleProvider - bcprov-jdk14-143.jar.
If you have the certificate, you can use Internet Explorer and/or Firefox to export the public and private keys.
Public Key should be in DER format.
In order to create a keystore file, use this article:
http://www.herongyang.com/jtool/jca_keytool.html
I hope this will help.

FYI, no one should be using the RSA algorithm to encrypt files. Instead:
1. generate a symmetric key (16 random bytes for AES128, for example)
2. use the public key to encrypt (”wrap”) the symmetric key
3. use the symmetric key to encrypt the data
4. place the wrapped symmetric key in a header of the ciphertext file
Thanks for the Java tips-

THANXS 4 all
thank sri krishna , you solve my problem

Hello,
I have few questions :
1) It has been mentioned that SunJCE provides implementation for RSA. (JDK 1.6). Do we still need to use BouncyCastle.
2) I have private and public key in XML format generated using VB.net program. But I have a requirement to decrypt using Java. How to do this ? Would JCE supports this ?
3) Can you provide sample java Code to sign(ature) encrypted (RSA) text and then decrypt (RSA) and verify the signature.
This is very urgent and your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sarath.

HI Aviran,
I wrote dis program…its working fine but i want to store encrypted data in seperate .txt file and decrypt by taking dat encrypted .txt file…i stored encrypted data in one file and i am decrypting dat file but it giving error… and i dont know about public key and private key in rsa algorithm..
plz give me any idea about dis?

Hello guys, please how can i get JAVA source code for implementation of RSA Algorithm on Local area Network (LAN). Thanks.
December 2nd, 2009 at 5:38 am
I stored my public and private keys in “.txt” file, I retrieve them and they become string now.
how can I use them to do encryption/decryption??
please help me ASAP
thanks in advanced:)
December 10th, 2009 at 2:44 am
HI aviran,
In the example you have mentioned ways to encode a key or the data as strings, But if i hwant to use the private key to decrypt the data, how will i go by it?
I know i can use a base64Decoder to decode the string back into byte arrays, but how do i regain the key from the byte array?
Looking forward to your advice..
Thanks,
George
January 12th, 2010 at 1:02 pm
The implementation that you have suggest is an excellent resource.
Just want to confirm if there is a later version of this with new releases of Java itself and BouncyCastle API.
Your version dates back to 2004 and probably thats quiet some eons back
Thanks,
January 12th, 2010 at 10:44 pm
Wow Aviran,
Thanks so much for providing this example. This isnt a half implemented wreck like a lot of the examples I have seen are. I greatly appreciate the time you must have taken to put this together. Your programming style is very nice.

Hi everyone, I’m not much of a programmer myself, so i was wondering can anybody help me make an email client program where you can implement the DSA algorihm inside so that the email client can append digital signatures to emails while also decrypt it? any URL links that corresponds will help me a lot. Thank you for your help.

hi.
i m luking for java code implementaion of RSA algo
my project uses oracle DB
my aim is to get record from user SAY ” T”, encrypy it and save it in ORACLE DB in encrypted form only.
Then i want to retrieve the same record.. so enter the record say” T”
but this time i m getting it encrypted in different form. so my records are not matching with DB records and i m unable to retrieve..
give me FULL source code
February 17th, 2010 at 3:23 pm
Really useful i was searching for RSA algorithm …. how it works etc i got alll information ineeded

Dear Aviran,
Thanks for solving many of the programming nightmares associated with Cryptography. Please, i need a complete java implementation of RSA algorithm that takes into account the 512, 1024, etc modulus. This is to enable me perform a comparative analysis with the Elliptic curve equivalent.
April 15th, 2010 at 1:34 pm
This is really a good article to solve your RSA encryption
task with strings/files and manipulate as you want..

and when try to get this string back I get this output
“Hello/World/////”
How can i resolve this problem?
Thanks

Hi there, I’m trying to generate some RSA keys in an android program.
I’ve put some of the code from your example into a class that will generate the keys, but am having some difficulty.
Keep getting ‘Unhandled exception type NoSuchAlgorithmException’ whenever calling the ‘generateKeys’ function.
What am I doing wrong?

import android.os.Bundle;
import java.io.*;
import java.security.*;
import java.security.spec.*;

hey friends i need a java code for rsa encryotion please can anyone help me please i need so
i need when i enter a plain text
the program can to translate to cipher text
and when cipher text is created again program can traslate again to plain text
December 18th, 2010 at 5:39 pm
Hi,
Thanks for the example. But I have a problem that’s driving me crazy.
As far as I know, when I generate an RSA key pair, with 1024 bits, it uses blocks with size 128. What about this? :
I ensured that the byte array buf’s length is 128. When I call cipher.doFinal(buf), it throws the exception “input too large for RSA cipher”. Any ideas?
December 19th, 2010 at 10:20 pm
hey all…
I work in J2ME. I still do not know how to encrypt the input using RSA, if the input value more than the modulus value? can you tell me about it……?
December 29th, 2010 at 4:19 am
Fantastic, Your code is so helpful for me.
And these following discussion is useful.
Thanks so much.

Hi,
Nice article and I really learn a lot from it. I had use your code with RSA and it definitely works fine. I’d also made an attempt to try it with ElGamal, but I got an error when trying to encrypt files with large sizes (my files ranges from 1byte up to 1mb, all are of textfiles). I had use the following to generate my keypair:
public static KeyPair generateKey() throws Exception
{
Security.addProvider(new BouncyCastleProvider());
KeyPairGenerator keyGen = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance(”ElGamal”,”BC”);
keyGen.initialize(256);
KeyPair key = keyGen.generateKeyPair();
return key;
}

Hello,
Nice…
File decryption fails when using a key of bit size 2048 & 4096 to encrypt/decrypt. File encryption works ok. The file size doesn’t seem to matter. I’m running some tests hence the large keys… Also know that symmetric encryption is better for files..
See the exception thrown below:

I have a working version of the RSA for a byte array.
I can convert a string to a byte array as byte[] b1 = s1.getBytes;
But Afer encryption and decryption, I can recover the encrypted bye array, ie b1, but cannot extract the string s1 back.
s2 = b2.toString(); doesn’t work.

Hi Aviran,
Refer to the below API which got from your program:
public static void encryptFile(String srcFileName, String destFileName, PublicKey key) throws Exception
How to pass the PublicKey parameter to encrypt the file ?
I am using keystore file and it contains the keys.
Thanks in advance
October 19th, 2011 at 11:37 pm
Hi Aviran,
Please igonre my prev question. I have found the solution. Do you have sample code for Sign, Verify, SignEncrypt and VerifyDecrypt ?
October 20th, 2011 at 3:45 am
@Khan - Sorry I don’t have any sample code
October 24th, 2011 at 3:29 am
Hi Aviran,
Thanks for your reply.
I need to do the following testing:
1. Generation of keys using ‘RSA’ algorithm
2. Encryption and Decryption using 3DES algorithm.
3. Need to use the Bouncycastle provider.
Do u have any sample code for the above ? Or Can we use RSAEncryptUtil. java with minimum changes for Encryption and Decryption using 3DES algorithm?
October 25th, 2011 at 4:55 am
Hi Aviran,
I’m awaiting for ur reply for the question no 174. Pls reply me since its urgent.
Thks
October 25th, 2011 at 2:34 pm
You can use the RSAEncryptUtil freely.
Unfortunately I do not have code samples for you that I can share other than what is already in RSAEncryptUtil.
October 26th, 2011 at 11:33 pm
Ok. No problem. I have done it thru other program. It would be nice if i done thru changing RSAEncryptUtil. I like your example program. In case if you change the program to fulfill the above requirement pls share with us.

how to read PrivateKey from a file that is password protected?
April 12th, 2012 at 7:45 pm
Hi… This site is very helpful. the code which has been put up is working fine. I need to make a secure message board.
I need codes which can help me implement client-server authentication and once the clients are connected using tcp sockets, then a client should be able to encrypt a message locally and send it to the server. The server waits for the receiver to log in. once logged in, it just pushes the message and the client decrypts locally.
April 29th, 2012 at 11:11 am
Well, you’re reading memory address, not the content of byte array.
You can fix like this:
String originalText= new String(clearText1);
System.out.println(”Decrypted text:”+ clearText1);
Done!

Hi I am working in a project where I need to migrate the JDK from 1.4 to 1.6. Now we have a code where the below has been used.
private static com.bt.util.logging.base64.BASE64Encoder b64E = new com.bt.util.logging.base64.BASE64Encoder();
In 1.4 it was fine but when I tried to compile it in jdk6 that time the below compilation error is coimg.
com.bt.util cannot be resolved to a type
Currently commons-codec-1.3.jar was used but I replaced it with commons-codec-1.6 [latest one], but still the same error is coming. can anybody pls help me here? what is the commons codec compatible version for jdk 6?
July 27th, 2012 at 9:12 am
fika…for log4j you can refer http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/download.html
and for bouncycastle you can refer http://www.bouncycastle.org/latest_releases.html
