SECURITY

Warning

The SECURITY Foundation Library (ej.api:security) is deprecated and replaced by the CRYPTO Foundation Library (ej.api:crypto 2.0.1). The CRYPTO Foundation Library is a standalone library (no longer part of the Net Pack). New VEE Ports and Applications should use CRYPTO instead.

Principle

The SECURITY Foundation Library provides standard Java API (part of the Java Cryptography Architecture) for cryptographic operations: cipher, digest, MAC, signature, secure random & key/certificate management. It relies on a native crypto engine (such as Mbed TLS, OpenSSL or wolfSSL).

Dependencies

The LLSEC_*.h implementations (see LLSEC: SECURITY (deprecated)).

Installation

SECURITY is an additional module. To enable it, the Net Pack (which bundles several libraries: Net, SSL & SECURITY) must be installed in your VEE Port:

microejPack("com.microej.pack.net:net-pack:11.0.2")

<dependency org="com.microej.pack.net" name="net-pack" rev="11.0.2"/>

Then, using the VEE Port Editor (see Platform Module Configuration), enable the SECURITY library (API, Impl & Mock):

Use

The SECURITY API module must be added to the Application project build file to use the SECURITY library:

implementation("ej.api:security:1.6.0")

<dependency org="ej.api" name="security" rev="1.6.0"/>
