# Standard Names

The JDK Security API requires and uses a set of standard names for algorithms, certificate and keystore types. This specification establishes the following names as standard names.

In some cases naming conventions are given for forming names that are not explicitly listed, to facilitate name consistency across provider implementations. Items in angle brackets (such as `<digest>` and`<encryption>`) are placeholders to be replaced by a specific message digest, encryption algorithm, or other name.

Note: Standard names are not case-sensitive.

This document includes corresponding lists of standard names relevant to the following security subareas:

- Java PKI Programmer's Guide
- JSSE Reference Guide
- For standard name specifications, See Algorithms.
- Cryptography Architecture
- Single Sign-on Using Kerberos in Java
- The Java SASL API Programming and Deployment Guide
- The XML Digital Signature API Specification

## `AlgorithmParameterGenerator` Algorithms

The algorithm names in this section can be specified when generating an instance of `AlgorithmParameterGenerator`.

Alg. Name | Description
--- | ---
DiffieHellman | Parameters for use with the Diffie-Hellman algorithm.
DSA | Parameters for use with the Digital Signature Algorithm.

## `AlgorithmParameters` Algorithms

The algorithm names in this section can be specified when generating an instance of `AlgorithmParameters`.

Alg. Name | Description
--- | ---
AES | Parameters for use with the AES algorithm.
Blowfish | Parameters for use with the Blowfish algorithm.

## `CertificateFactory` Types

The types in this section can be specified when generating an instance of `CertificateFactory`.

Type | Description
--- | ---
X.509 | The certificate type defined in X.509, also available via RFC 3280

## `CertPathBuilder` Algorithms

The algorithms in this section can be specified when generating an instance of `CertPathBuilder`.

Alg. Name | Description
--- | ---
PKIX | The PKIX certification path validation algorithm as defined in the ValidationAlgorithm service attribute. The output of `CertPathBuilder` instances implementing this algorithm is a certification path validated against the PKIX validation algorithm.

## CertPath Encodings

The following encodings may be passed to the `getEncoded` method of `CertPath` or the `generateCertPath(InputStream inStream, String encoding)` method of `CertificateFactory`.

Encoding | Description
--- | ---
PKCS7 | A PKCS#7 SignedData object, with the only significant field being certificates. In particular, the signature and the contents are ignored. If no certificates are present, a zero-length `CertPath` is assumed. Warning: PKCS#7 does not maintain the order of certificates in a certification path. This means that if a `CertPath` is converted to PKCS#7 encoded bytes and then converted back, the order of the certificates may change, potentially rendering the `CertPath` invalid. Users should be aware of this behavior. See RSA Security for details on PKCS7.
PkiPath | an ASN.1 DER encoded sequence of certificates, defined as follows:
        PkiPath ::= SEQUENCE OF Certificate
Within the sequence, the order of certificates is such that the subject of the first certificate is the issuer of the second certificate, etc. Each certificate in `PkiPath` shall be unique. No certificate may appear more than once in a value of `Certificate` in `PkiPath`. The `PkiPath` format is defined in defect report 279 against X.509 (2000) and is incorporated into Technical Corrigendum 1 (DTC 2) for the ITU-T Recommendation X.509 (2000). See the ITU website for details.

## `CertPathValidator` Algorithms

Type | Description
--- | ---

## `Cipher` (Encryption) Algorithms

### Cipher Algorithm Names

The following names can be specified as the algorithm component in a transformation when requesting an instance of `Cipher`.

Alg. Name | Description
--- | ---
AES | Advanced Encryption Standard as specified by NIST in FIPS 197. Also known as the Rijndael algorithm by Joan Daemen and Vincent Rijmen, AES is a 128-bit block cipher supporting keys of 128, 192, and 256 bits.
AESWrap | The AES key wrapping algorithm as described in RFC 3394.
ARCFOUR | A stream cipher believed to be fully interoperable with the RC4 cipher developed by Ron Rivest. For more information, see K. Kaukonen and R. Thayer, "A Stream Cipher Encryption Algorithm 'Arcfour'", Internet Draft (expired), draft-kaukonen-cipher-arcfour-03.txt.
Blowfish | The Blowfish block cipher designed by Bruce Schneier.
DES | The Digital Encryption Standard as described in FIPS PUB 46-3.
DESede | Triple DES Encryption (also known as DES-EDE, 3DES, or Triple-DES). Data is encrypted using the DES algorithm three separate times. It is first encrypted using the first subkey, then decrypted with the second subkey, and encrypted with the third subkey.
DESedeWrap | The DESede key wrapping algorithm as described in RFC 3217 .
ECIES | Elliptic Curve Integrated Encryption Scheme
PBEWith<digest>And<encryption> PBEWith<prf>And<encryption> | The password-based encryption algorithm found in (PKCS5), using the specified message digest (<digest>) or pseudo-random function (<prf>) and encryption algorithm (<encryption>). Examples: PBEWithMD5AndDES: The password-based encryption algorithm as defined in RSA Laboratories, "PKCS5: Password-Based Encryption Standard," version 1.5, Nov 1993. Note that this algorithm implies CBC as the cipher mode and PKCS5Padding as the padding scheme and cannot be used with any other cipher modes or padding schemes. PBEWithHmacSHA1AndDESede: The password-based encryption algorithm as defined in RSA Laboratories, "PKCS5: Password-Based Cryptography Standard," version 2.0, March 1999.

### Cipher Algorithm Modes

The following names can be specified as the mode component in a transformation when requesting an instance of `Cipher`.

Alg. Name | Description
--- | ---
NONE | No mode.
CBC | Cipher Block Chaining Mode, as defined in FIPS PUB 81.
CFB, CFBx | Cipher Feedback Mode, as defined in FIPS PUB 81. Using modes such as CFB and OFB, block ciphers can encrypt data in units smaller than the cipher's actual block size. When requesting such a mode, you may optionally specify the number of bits to be processed at a time by appending this number to the mode name as shown in the "DES/CFB8/NoPadding" and "DES/OFB32/PKCS5Padding" transformations. If no such number is specified, a provider-specific default is used. (For example, the SunJCE provider uses a default of 64 bits for DES.) Thus, block ciphers can be turned into byte-oriented stream ciphers by using an 8 bit mode such as CFB8 or OFB8.
CTR | A simplification of OFB, Counter mode updates the input block as a counter.
CTS | Cipher Text Stealing, as described in Bruce Schneier's book Applied Cryptography-Second Edition, John Wiley and Sons, 1996.
ECB | Electronic Codebook Mode, as defined in FIPS PUB 81.
OFB, OFBx | Output Feedback Mode, as defined in FIPS PUB 81. Using modes such as CFB and OFB, block ciphers can encrypt data in units smaller than the cipher's actual block size. When requesting such a mode, you may optionally specify the number of bits to be processed at a time by appending this number to the mode name as shown in the "DES/CFB8/NoPadding" and "DES/OFB32/PKCS5Padding" transformations. If no such number is specified, a provider-specific default is used. (For example, the SunJCE provider uses a default of 64 bits for DES.) Thus, block ciphers can be turned into byte-oriented stream ciphers by using an 8 bit mode such as CFB8 or OFB8.
PCBC | Propagating Cipher Block Chaining, as defined by Kerberos V4.

### Cipher Algorithm Padding

The following names can be specified as the padding component in a transformation when requesting an instance of `Cipher`.

Alg. Name | Description
--- | ---
NoPadding | No padding.
ISO10126Padding | This padding for block ciphers is described in 5.2 Block Encryption Algorithms in the W3C's "XML Encryption Syntax and Processing" document.
OAEPPadding, OAEPWith<digest>And<mgf>Padding | Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding scheme defined in PKCS1, where <digest> should be replaced by the message digest and <mgf> by the mask generation function. Examples: OAEPWithMD5AndMGF1Padding and OAEPWithSHA-512AndMGF1Padding. If `OAEPPadding` is used, `Cipher` objects are initialized with a `javax.crypto.spec.OAEPParameterSpec` object to suppply values needed for OAEPPadding.
PKCS1Padding | The padding scheme described in PKCS1, used with the RSA algorithm.
PKCS5Padding | The padding scheme described in RSA Laboratories, "PKCS5: Password-Based Encryption Standard," version 1.5, November 1993.
SSL3Padding | The padding scheme defined in the SSL Protocol Version 3.0, November 18, 1996, section 5.2.3.2 (CBC block cipher):
        block-ciphered struct {
    	opaque content[SSLCompressed.length];
    	opaque MAC[CipherSpec.hash_size];
    	uint8 padding[
    	    GenericBlockCipher.padding_length];
    	uint8 padding_length;
        } GenericBlockCipher;
The size of an instance of a GenericBlockCipher must be a multiple of the block cipher's block length. The padding length, which is always present, contributes to the padding, which implies that if:
        sizeof(content) + sizeof(MAC) % block_length = 0,
padding has to be (block_length - 1) bytes long, because of the existence of `padding_length`. This make the padding scheme similar (but not quite) to PKCS5Padding, where the padding length is encoded in the padding (and ranges from 1 to block_length). With the SSL scheme, the sizeof(padding) is encoded in the always present `padding_length` and therefore ranges from 0 to block_length-1.

## Service Attributes

A cryptographic service is always associated with a particular algorithm or type. For example, a digital signature service is always associated with a particular algorithm (e.g., DSA), and a `CertificateFactory` service is always associated with a particular certificate type (e.g., X.509).

The attributes in this section are for cryptographic services. The service attributes can be used as filters for selecting providers.

Both the attribute name and value are case insensitive.

Attribute | Description
--- | ---
KeySize | The maximum key size that the provider supports for the cryptographic service.
ImplementedIn | Whether the implementation for the cryptographic service is done by software or hardware. The value of this attribute is "software" or "hardware".
ValidationAlgorithm | The name of the specification that defines the certification path validation algorithm that an implementation of `CertPathBuilder` or `CertPathValidator` supports. RFCs should be specified as "RFC#" (ex: "RFC3280") and Internet Drafts as the name of the draft (ex: "draft-ietf-pkix-rfc2560bis-01.txt"). Values for this attribute that are specified as selection criteria to the `Security.getProviders` method will be compared using the `String.equalsIgnoreCase` method. All PKIX implementations of `CertPathBuilder` and `CertPathValidator` should provide a value for this attribute.
LDAPSchema | The name of the specification that defines the LDAP schema that an implementation of an LDAP `CertStore` uses to retrieve certificates and CRLs. The format and semantics of this attribute is the same as described for the ValidationAlgorithm attribute. All LDAP implementations of `CertStore` should provide a value for this attribute.

For example:

    	map.put("KeyPairGenerator.DSA",
    	    "sun.security.provider.DSAKeyPairGenerator");
    	map.put("KeyPairGenerator.DSA KeySize", "1024");
    	map.put("KeyPairGenerator.DSA ImplementedIn", "Software");

| NONEwithECDSA SHA1withECDSA SHA256withECDSA SHA384withECDSA SHA512withECDSA (ECDSA) | The ECDSA signature algorithms as defined in ANSI X9.62. Note:"ECDSA" is an ambiguous name for the "SHA1withECDSA" algorithm and should not be used. The formal name "SHA1withECDSA" should be used instead.
<digest>with<encryption> | Use this to form a name for a signature algorithm with a particular message digest (such as MD2 or MD5) and algorithm (such as RSA or DSA), just as was done for the explicitly-defined standard names in this section (MD2withRSA, etc.). For the new signature schemes defined in PKCS1 v 2.0, for which the <digest>with<encryption> form is insufficient, <digest>with<encryption>and<mgf> can be used to form a name. Here, <mgf> should be replaced by a mask generation function such as MGF1. Example: MD5withRSAandMGF1.

## Additional JSSE Standard Names

The `keyType` parameter passed to the `chooseClientAlias`, `chooseServerAlias`, `getClientAliases`, and `getServerAliases` methods of `X509KeyManager` specify the public key type(s). Each row of the table below lists the standard name that should be used for `keyType`, given the specified certificate type.

> Name | Certificate Type
> --- | ---
> RSA | RSA
> DSA | DSA
> DH_RSA | Diffie-Hellman with RSA signature
> DH_DSA | Diffie-Hellman with DSA signature
> EC | Elliptic Curve
> EC_EC | Elliptic Curve with ECDSA signature
> EC_RSA | Elliptic Curve with RSA signature

The `protocols` parameter passed to the `setEnabledProtocols` method of `SSLSocket` specifies the protocol versions to be enabled for use on the connection. The table below lists the standard names that can be passed to `setEnabledProtocols` or that may be returned by the `SSLSocket getSupportedProtocols` and `getEnabledProtocols` methods.

> Name | Protocol
> --- | ---
> SSLv2 | SSL version 2 protocol
> SSLv3 | SSL version 3 protocol
> TLSv1 | TLS version 1.0 protocol (defined in RFC 2246)
> TLSv1.1 | TLS version 1.1 protocol (defined in RFC 4346)
> SSLv2Hello | Currently, the SSLv3, TLSv1, and TLSv1.1 protocols allow you to send SSLv3, TLSv1, and TLSv1.1 hellos encapsulated in an SSLv2 format hello. For more details on the reasons for allowing this compatibility in these protocols, see Appendix E in the appropriate RFCs (above). Note that some SSL/TLS servers do not support the v2 hello format and require that client hellos conform to the SSLv3 or TLSv1 client hello formats. The SSLv2Hello option controls the SSLv2 encapsulation. If SSLv2Hello is disabled on the client, then all outgoing messages will conform to the SSLv3/TLSv1 client hello format. If SSLv2Hello is disabled on the server, then all incoming messages must conform to the SSLv3/TLSv1 client hello format.

The `authType` parameter passed to the `checkClientTrusted` and `checkServerTrusted` methods of `X509TrustManager` indicates the authentication type. The table below specifies what standard names should be used for the client or server certificate chains.

> Client or Server Certificate Chain | Authentication Type Standard Name
> --- | ---
> Client | Determined by the actual certificate used. For instance, if RSAPublicKey is used, the `authType` should be "RSA".
> Server | The key exchange algorithm portion of the cipher suites represented as a String, such as "RSA" or "DHE_DSS". Note: For some exportable cipher suites, the key exchange algorithm is determined at run time during the handshake. For instance, for TLS_RSA_EXPORT_WITH_RC4_40_MD5, the `authType` should be "RSA_EXPORT" when an ephemeral RSA key is used for the key exchange, and "RSA" when the key from the server certificate is used. Or it can take the value "UNKNOWN".

Over time, various groups have added new ciphersuites definitions to the SSL/TLS namespace. Some ciphersuite names were defined before TLSv1.0 was finalized, and were therefore given the `SSL_*` prefix. The names mentioned in the TLS RFC prefixed with `TLS_*` are functionally equivalent to the JSSE ciphersuites prefixed with `SSL_*`.

The following table lists the standard cipher suite names:

# Algorithms

This Section specifies details concerning some of the algorithms defined in this document. Any provider supplying an implementation of the listed algorithms must comply with the specifications in this appendix.

To add a new algorithm not specified here, you should first survey other people or companies supplying provider packages to see if they have already added that algorithm, and, if so, use the definitions they published, if available. Otherwise, you should create and make available a template, similar to those found in this Section, with the specifications for the algorithm you provide.

# Implementation Requirements

This section defines the security algorithm requirements for Java SE 6 implementations. These requirements are intended to improve the interoperability of Java SE 6 implementations and applications that use these algorithms.

The implementation requirements are one of two types:

- RECOMMENDED: Each implementation of Java SE 6 should, by default (as installed), support the specified algorithm(s).
- REQUIRED: Each implementation of Java SE 6 must, by default (as installed), support the specified algorithm(s).

Note that the requirements in this section are not a measure of the strength or security of the algorithm. For example, recent advances in cryptanalysis have found weaknesses in the strength of the MD5 MessageDigest algorithm. It is your responsibility to determine whether the algorithm meets the security requirements of your application.

If an algorithm or engine is not listed, then it is not subject to the specified requirement.

### Java Cryptography and PKI Algorithms

Each implementation of Java SE 6 should, by default (as installed), support the specified algorithms (all RECOMMENDED) in the table below. For the next release of Java SE (7), the plan is that each algorithm in the table below will be changed to REQUIRED. These requirements do not apply to 3rd party providers.
