Part of the new API.

Equivalent to the call crypto_init(Cipher, Key, <<>>, FlagOrOptions). It is intended for ciphers without an IV (nounce).

Part of the new API. Initializes a series of encryptions or decryptions and creates an internal state with a reference that is returned.

If IV = <<>>, no IV is used. This is intended for ciphers without an IV (nounce). See crypto_init/3.

If IV = undefined, the IV must be added by calls to crypto_dyn_iv_update/3. This is intended for cases where the IV (nounce) need to be changed for each encryption and decryption. See crypto_dyn_iv_init/3.

The actual encryption or decryption is done by crypto_update/2 (or crypto_dyn_iv_update/3 ).

For encryption, set the FlagOrOptions to true or [{encrypt,true}]. For decryption, set it to false or [{encrypt,false}].

Padding could be enabled with the option {padding,Padding}. The cryptolib_padding enables pkcs_padding or no padding (none). The paddings zero or random fills the last part of the last block with zeroes or random bytes. If the last block is already full, nothing is added.

In decryption, the cryptolib_padding removes such padding, if present. The otp_padding is not removed - it has to be done elsewhere.

If padding is {padding,none} or not specifed and the total data from all subsequent crypto_updates does not fill the last block fully, that last data is lost. In case of {padding,none} there will be an error in this case. If padding is not specified, the bytes of the unfilled block is silently discarded.

The actual padding is performed by crypto_final/1.

For blocksizes call cipher_info/1.

See examples in the User's Guide.

Part of the new API. It does an actual crypto operation on a part of the full text. If the part is less than a number of full blocks, only the full blocks (possibly none) are encrypted or decrypted and the remaining bytes are saved to the next crypto_update operation. The State should be created with crypto_init/3 or crypto_init/4.

See examples in the User's Guide.

Part of the new API.

Initializes a series of encryptions or decryptions where the IV is provided later. The actual encryption or decryption is done by crypto_dyn_iv_update/3.

The function is equivalent to crypto_init(Cipher, Key, undefined, FlagOrOptions).

Part of the new API.

Finalizes a series of encryptions or decryptions and delivers the final bytes of the final block. The data returned from this function may be empty if no padding was enabled in crypto_init/3,4 or crypto_dyn_iv_init/3.

Part of the new API.

Returns information about the State in the argument. The information is the form of a map, which currently contains at least:

padding_size

After a call to crypto_final/1 it contains the number of bytes padded. Otherwise 0.

padding_type

The type of the padding as provided in the call ot crypto_init/3,4.

encrypt

Is true if encryption is performed. It is false otherwise.

Part of the new API. Do an actual crypto operation on a part of the full text and the IV is supplied for each part. The State should be created with crypto_dyn_iv_init/3.

As crypto_one_time/5 but for ciphers without IVs.

Part of the new API. Do a complete encrypt or decrypt of the full text in the argument Data.

For encryption, set the FlagOrOptions to true. For decryption, set it to false. For setting other options, see crypto_init/4.

See examples in the User's Guide.

Part of the new API. Do a complete encrypt or decrypt with an AEAD cipher of the full text.

For encryption, set the EncryptFlag to true and set the TagOrTagLength to the wanted size (in bytes) of the tag, that is, the tag length. If the default length is wanted, the crypto_aead/6 form may be used.

For decryption, set the EncryptFlag to false and put the tag to be checked in the argument TagOrTagLength.

See examples in the User's Guide.

Short for mac(Type, undefined, Key, Data).

Computes a MAC (Message Authentication Code) of type Type from Data.

SubType depends on the MAC Type:

• For hmac it is a hash algorithm, see Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.
• For cmac it is a cipher suitable for cmac, see Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.
• For poly1305 it should be set to undefined or the mac/2 function could be used instead, see Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

Key is the authentication key with a length according to the Type and SubType. The key length could be found with the hash_info/1 (hmac) for and cipher_info/1 (cmac) functions. For poly1305 the key length is 32 bytes. Note that the cryptographic quality of the key is not checked.

The Mac result will have a default length depending on the Type and SubType. To set a shorter length, use macN/4 or macN/5 instead. The default length is documented in Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

Short for macN(Type, undefined, Key, Data, MacLength).

Computes a MAC (Message Authentication Code) as mac/3 and mac/4 but MacLength will limit the size of the resultant Mac to at most MacLength bytes. Note that if MacLength is greater than the actual number of bytes returned from the underlying hash, the returned hash will have that shorter length instead.

The max MacLength is documented in Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

Short for mac_init(Type, undefined, Key).

Initializes the context for streaming MAC operations.

Type determines which mac algorithm to use in the MAC operation.

SubType depends on the MAC Type:

• For poly1305 it should be set to undefined or the mac/2 function could be used instead, see Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

Key is the authentication key with a length according to the Type and SubType. The key length could be found with the hash_info/1 (hmac) for and cipher_info/1 (cmac) functions. For poly1305 the key length is 32 bytes. Note that the cryptographic quality of the key is not checked.

The returned State should be used in one or more subsequent calls to mac_update/2. The MAC value is finally returned by calling mac_final/1 or mac_finalN/2.

See examples in the User's Guide.

Updates the MAC represented by State0 using the given Data which could be of any length.

The State0 is the State value originally from a MAC init function, that is mac_init/2, mac_init/3 or a previous call of mac_update/2. The value State0 is returned unchanged by the function as State.

Finalizes the MAC operation referenced by State. The Mac result will have a default length depending on the Type and SubType in the mac_init/2,3 call. To set a shorter length, use mac_finalN/2 instead. The default length is documented in Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

Finalizes the MAC operation referenced by State.

Mac will be a binary with at most MacLength bytes. Note that if MacLength is greater than the actual number of bytes returned from the underlying hash, the returned hash will have that shorter length instead.

The max MacLength is documented in Algorithm Details in the User's Guide.

Finalizes the hash operation referenced by Context returned from a previous call to hash_update. The size of Digest is determined by the type of hash function used to generate it.

Provides information about the FIPS operating status of crypto and the underlying libcrypto library. If crypto was built with FIPS support this can be either enabled (when running in FIPS mode) or not_enabled. For other builds this value is always not_supported.

See enable_fips_mode/1 about how to enable FIPS mode.

Enables (Enable = true) or disables (Enable = false) FIPS mode. Returns true if the operation was successful or false otherwise.

Note that to enable FIPS mode succesfully, OTP must be built with the configure option --enable-fips, and the underlying libcrypto must also support FIPS.

Types

Creates a state object for random number generation, in order to generate cryptographically unpredictable random numbers. See also rand_seed_alg/1.

To get a long period the Xoroshiro928 generator from the rand module is used as a counter (with period 2^928 - 1) and the generator states are scrambled through AES to create 58-bit pseudo random values.

The result should be statistically completely unpredictable random values, since the scrambling is cryptographically strong and the period is ridiculously long. But the generated numbers are not to be regarded as cryptographically strong since there is no re-keying schedule.

• If you need cryptographically strong random numbers use rand_seed_alg_s/1 with Alg =:= crypto or Alg =:= crypto_cache.

• If you need to be able to repeat the sequence use this function.

• If you do not need the statistical quality of this function, there are faster algorithms in the rand module.

Thanks to the used generator the state object supports the rand:jump/0,1 function with distance 2^512.

Numbers are generated in batches and cached for speed reasons. The cache size can be changed from its default value using the crypto app's configuration parameter rand_cache_size.
