- Hash-Based Authentication
- Cipher-Based Authentication
- Digital Signatures
The first two are also referred to as Message Authentication Codes (MACs). The template defines the authentication method to be used and any parameters needed to accomplish the authentication.
When the Hash-based MAC is called for there is only one method defined in the JPSEC standard
HMAC. The list of Hash functions for use with this method are given in table 1. The method, function, key template, and size in bits of the MAC are defined in the template.
Table 1: JPSEC Hash Function Identifiers
| Identifier | Hash Function |
|---|---|
| 0 | Reserved |
| 1 | SHA-1 |
| 2 | RIPEMD-128 |
| 3 | RIPEMD-160 |
| 4 | MASH-1 |
| 5 | MASH-2 |
| 6 | SHA-224 |
| 7 | SHA-256 |
| 8 | SHA-384 |
| 9 | SHA-512 |
| 10 | Whirlpool |
| All other values are reserved for ISO use |
When the Cipher-based MAC is called for there are four methods defined in the JPSEC standard:
- CBC-MAC MAC Algorithm 1
- CBC-MAC MAC Algorithm 2
- CBC-MAC MAC Algorithm 3
- CBC-MAC MAC Algorithm 4
The list of Block-ciphers for use with these methods is given in table 2. The method, block-cipher to be used,
key template, and size in bits of the MAC are defined in the template.
Table 2: JPSEC Block-cipher Identifiers
| Identifier | Cipher Type |
|---|---|
| 0x0000 | NULL (no encryption) |
| 0x0001 | AES |
| 0x0002 | TDEA |
| 0x0003 | MISTY-1 |
| 0x0004 | Camellia |
| 0x0005 | CAST-128 |
| 0x0006 | SEED |
| All other values are reserved for ISO use |
When a digital signature is called for there are four methods defined in the JPSEC standard:
The list of Hash functions for use with this method are given in table 1. The method, hash function,
key template, and size of the digital signature in bits are defined in the
template.
