CryptoKeyManager Class

Properties Methods Events Config Settings Errors

The CryptoKeyManager class provides a simple way to load, generate and manage generic crypto keys.

Syntax

class secureblackbox.CryptoKeyManager

Remarks

CryptoKeyManager allows you to load, save, generate, import, and export low-level crypto keys. One example of such keys are raw RSA keys stored in PKCS1 format or AES256 keys. CryptoKeyManager supports asymmetric, symmetric, and HMAC keys.

CryptoKeyManager is a typical companion for low-level cryptography classes, such as PublicKeyCrypto, SymmetricCrypto, and HashFunction. It can also be used to provide external key material to certificate objects, and to derive cryptographic keys from passwords.

Use import_bytes or import_from_file method to load the key material from a buffer or file. Use import_from_cert (and remember to assign the certificate object to the certificate property before calling it) to import a key from an X.509 certificate. Once loaded, the key will be available in the key property.

To generate a new key or keypair use generate method. You can export the generated key using export_bytes or export_to_file method. You can attach the generated or loaded key to an external certificate object using the export_to_cert method.

Note: CryptoKeyManager can only work with one cryptographic key at a time. Use CryptoKeyStorage to access media containing more than one key.

key_public = property(get_key_public, None)

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

Returns True if the object hosts a public key, and False otherwise.

This property is read-only.

key_subject Property

Returns the key subject.

Syntax

def get_key_subject() -> bytes: ...
def set_key_subject(value: bytes) -> None: ...

key_subject = property(get_key_subject, set_key_subject)

Remarks

Returns the key subject. This is a cryptoprovider-dependent value, which normally aims to provide some user-friendly insight into the key owner.

key_symmetric Property

Returns True if the object contains a symmetric key, and False otherwise.

Syntax

def get_key_symmetric() -> bool: ...

key_symmetric = property(get_key_symmetric, None)

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

Returns True if the object contains a symmetric key, and False otherwise.

This property is read-only.

key_valid Property

Returns True if this key is valid.

Syntax

def get_key_valid() -> bool: ...

key_valid = property(get_key_valid, None)

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

Returns True if this key is valid. The term Valid highly depends on the kind of the key being stored. A symmetric key is considered valid if its length fits the algorithm being set. The validity of an RSA key also ensures that the RSA key elements (primes, exponents, and modulus) are consistent.

This property is read-only.

config Method

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

def config(configuration_string: str) -> str: ...

Remarks

config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.
