Supported algorithms

The IBMCAC provider supports a range of KeyPairGenerator, Signature, Cipher, and Keystore algorithms.

The supported algorithms are shown in the following table:

Table 1. Algorithms supported by the IBMCAC provider.
Algorithm	Algorithm Name	Description
KeyPairGenerator	RSA	Generates RSA key pairs. The default keysize is 2048.
Signature	RSA-PSS SHA1withRSA MD5withRSA MD2withRSA SHA256withRSA SHA384withRSA SHA512withRSA	Creates and validates signatures using various message digest and encryption algorithms, as specified in the algorithm name.
Cipher	RSA RSA/ECB/PKCS1Padding	Performs RSA encryption and decryption.
Keystore	Windows-MY Windows-ROOT	Windows-MY is the keystore type that identifies the native Windows MY keystore. This keystore contains the private keys and the associated certificate chains for a user. The Windows-ROOT keystore type identifies the native Windows ROOT keystore. This keystore contains the certificate of the root certificate authorities and other self-signed trusted certificates.
SecureRandon	Windows-PRNG	The native pseudo-random number generator.
