  ...
  public void accept(KMIPServerAcceptEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerAcceptEvent {
  public String remoteAddress;
  public int remotePort;
  public boolean accept; //read-write
}

Remarks

This event is fired when a new connection from RemoteAddress:RemotePort is ready to be accepted. Use the Accept parameter to accept or decline it.

Subscribe to Connect event to be notified of every connection that has been set up.

ActivateObject Event (KMIPServer Class)

Notifies the application about the object activation request.

Object activation requests are handled in a simplified way, without using the three-step virtualization approach.

Add Event (KMIPServer Class)

Passes the certificate import request to the application.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void add(KMIPServerAddEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerAddEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public String group; //read-write
  public String certId; //read-write
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

The server uses this event to allow the application to customize a certificate import request. This request fires after BeforeAdd if the Action parameter passed back to it was set to fraCustom.

The Group parameter indicates the shared name for the certificate elements (public key, private key, certificate). The CertId provides a unique identifier for the certificate object. Both can be adjusted by the application as required. Use the Certificate object to access the certificate parameters.

Upon completion of the processing, set the value of OperationStatus to match the result of the operation.

AddKey Event (KMIPServer Class)

Expects the application to handle the key import request.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void addKey(KMIPServerAddKeyEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerAddKeyEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public String group; //read-write
  public String keyId; //read-write
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

Application uses this event to wiretap into the key import procedure. For this event to be invoked, the fraCustom action needs to be previously returned from the BeforeAddKey event.

The handler of this event should process the key data provided via the Key property, typically by storing the key object in a local database. The handler also should set the KeyId and, optionally, Group parameters to match the properties of the new key object. The result of the operation should be returned via the OperationStatus parameter.

Handling and overriding server operations using the Three-Step Virtualization

Most of the server components shipped with SecureBlackbox are highly customizable, allowing the user to override or alter the way the clients' requests are handled by default. The customization feature paves the way for creation of bespoke or virtualized server solutions that work over standardized protocols.

The possibility of customization is typically offered through a three-step virtualization model. Every customizable operation or request that can be handled by the server - say, RenameFile - is represented with a triple of events:

• BeforeRenameFile
• RenameFile
• AfterRenameFile

The first event fires right after the respective request has been received from a client. It provides the details of the operation, such as the original and target file names, and, importantly, a by-reference (writable) Action parameter. The event handler can set the Action parameter to one of the three settings given below. The setting chosen defines the further operation flow:

• fraAuto: the operation shall be handled automatically by the server: in this case, a file will be searched in the provided local directory and renamed.
• fraCustom: indicates that the user wants to take care of the operation by themselves. If this setting is chosen, the server takes no action, and instead fires the RenameFile event shortly after BeforeRenameFile completes. The user is expected to handle RenameFile and perform the requested action - that is, rename the file - manually.
• fraAbort: the operation should be aborted as not supported/allowed. Neither the server nor the user are expected to perform it.

The second event (RenameFile) only fires if Action was set to fraCustom in the earlier call to BeforeRenameFile. It lets the user handle the requested operation in the way they want. The user code must fulfil the operation (for example, rename a database entry, if building a virtualized server), and return the operation result as the event's OperationResult parameter.

If the Action parameter was set to fraAuto, RenameFile is not called. The server performs the operation automatically.

The third event, AfterRenameFile, fires upon completion of the operation, either in automatic or custom mode. The user code can check and/or adjust the result to be returned to the client.

To summarize:

• If Action is set to fraAuto, the next call about this operation will be to AfterRenameFile.
• If Action is set to fraCustom, the next call about the operation will be to RenameFile, and after that to AfterRenameFile.
• If Action is set to fraAbort, the operation is rejected and no further calls about it are performed.

AfterAdd Event (KMIPServer Class)

Notifies the application about completion of the certificate import operation.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void afterAdd(KMIPServerAfterAddEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerAfterAddEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public String group; //read-write
  public String certId; //read-write
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

The class fires this event upon completion of certificate import routine. The certificate object that has been generated can be read from the Certificate property.

The Group and CertId parameters contain the name of the group and the unique identifier assigned to the new certificate. The OperationStatus parameter contains the result of the operation. The application can adjust them as required.

AfterAddKey Event (KMIPServer Class)

Reports the completion of the key import procedure.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void afterAddKey(KMIPServerAfterAddKeyEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerAfterAddKeyEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public String group; //read-write
  public String keyId; //read-write
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

The component uses the AfterAddKey event to notify the application about completion of the key import processing. The OperationStatus parameter returns the operation result. The KeyId and Group parameters are set to match the properties of the newly created key. The application can change them if required.

This event fires both for "normal" and "virtualized" requests, independently of the value of the Action parameter returned from the BeforeAddKey event. See the

AfterBrowse Event (KMIPServer Class)

KMIP server uses this event to notify the application about the completion of the browsing (attribute request) operation.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void afterBrowse(KMIPServerAfterBrowseEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerAfterBrowseEvent {
  public long connectionID;
  public String objectId;
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

The ConnectionID parameter identifies the client connection, and the ObjectId parameter specifies the unique ID of the object the attributes of which are being requested.

This event follows the three-step virtualization approach, and fires after the preceding BeforeBrowse and ReadAttribute events.

Check the operation status, and alter it, if needed, through the OperationStatus parameter:

}

public class KMIPServerAfterDecryptEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public String objectId;
  public byte[] decryptedData;
  public String correlationValue; //read-write
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

The component uses this event to notify the application about completion of the decrypt request. The event parameters provide the details of the decryption operation. This event fires independently of whether the build-in or virtualized decryption is used.

The ObjectId parameter contains the unique identifier of the decryption key. DecryptedData contains the decryption result. The CorrelationValue string is a linking token that allows to associate several pieces of a multi-step decryption operation together. The OperationStatus contains the result of the operation.

Handling and overriding server operations using the Three-Step Virtualization

Most of the server components shipped with SecureBlackbox are highly customizable, allowing the user to override or alter the way the clients' requests are handled by default. The customization feature paves the way for creation of bespoke or virtualized server solutions that work over standardized protocols.

The possibility of customization is typically offered through a three-step virtualization model. Every customizable operation or request that can be handled by the server - say, RenameFile - is represented with a triple of events:

• BeforeRenameFile
• RenameFile
• AfterRenameFile

The first event fires right after the respective request has been received from a client. It provides the details of the operation, such as the original and target file names, and, importantly, a by-reference (writable) Action parameter. The event handler can set the Action parameter to one of the three settings given below. The setting chosen defines the further operation flow:

• fraAuto: the operation shall be handled automatically by the server: in this case, a file will be searched in the provided local directory and renamed.
• fraCustom: indicates that the user wants to take care of the operation by themselves. If this setting is chosen, the server takes no action, and instead fires the RenameFile event shortly after BeforeRenameFile completes. The user is expected to handle RenameFile and perform the requested action - that is, rename the file - manually.
• fraAbort: the operation should be aborted as not supported/allowed. Neither the server nor the user are expected to perform it.

The second event (RenameFile) only fires if Action was set to fraCustom in the earlier call to BeforeRenameFile. It lets the user handle the requested operation in the way they want. The user code must fulfil the operation (for example, rename a database entry, if building a virtualized server), and return the operation result as the event's OperationResult parameter.

If the Action parameter was set to fraAuto, RenameFile is not called. The server performs the operation automatically.

The third event, AfterRenameFile, fires upon completion of the operation, either in automatic or custom mode. The user code can check and/or adjust the result to be returned to the client.

To summarize:

• If Action is set to fraAuto, the next call about this operation will be to AfterRenameFile.
• If Action is set to fraCustom, the next call about the operation will be to RenameFile, and after that to AfterRenameFile.
• If Action is set to fraAbort, the operation is rejected and no further calls about it are performed.

AfterEdit Event (KMIPServer Class)

Notifies the application of completion of the object editing operation.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void afterEdit(KMIPServerAfterEditEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerAfterEditEvent {
  public long connectionID;
  public String objectId;
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

The component fires this event to notify the application about completion of an edit operation. An edit operation consists of a number of individual attribute update requests.

The ObjectId parameter contains the unique identifier of the object that was edited. Use the OperationStatus parameter to check or update the result of the operation.

AfterEncrypt Event (KMIPServer Class)

Notifies the application about the completion of the encryption call.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void afterEncrypt(KMIPServerAfterEncryptEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerAfterEncryptEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public String objectId;
  public byte[] encryptedData;
  public String correlationValue; //read-write
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

The component uses this event to notify the application about completion of the encrypt request. The event parameters provide the details of the encryption operation. This event fires independently of whether the build-in or virtualized decryption is used.

The ObjectId parameter contains the unique identifier of the encryption key. EncryptedData contains the encryption result. The CorrelationValue string is a linking token that allows to associate several pieces of a multi-step encryption operation together. The OperationStatus contains the result of the operation.

The possibility of customization is typically offered through a three-step virtualization model. Every customizable operation or request that can be handled by the server - say, RenameFile - is represented with a triple of events:

• BeforeRenameFile
• RenameFile
• AfterRenameFile

The first event fires right after the respective request has been received from a client. It provides the details of the operation, such as the original and target file names, and, importantly, a by-reference (writable) Action parameter. The event handler can set the Action parameter to one of the three settings given below. The setting chosen defines the further operation flow:

• fraAuto: the operation shall be handled automatically by the server: in this case, a file will be searched in the provided local directory and renamed.
• fraCustom: indicates that the user wants to take care of the operation by themselves. If this setting is chosen, the server takes no action, and instead fires the RenameFile event shortly after BeforeRenameFile completes. The user is expected to handle RenameFile and perform the requested action - that is, rename the file - manually.
• fraAbort: the operation should be aborted as not supported/allowed. Neither the server nor the user are expected to perform it.

The second event (RenameFile) only fires if Action was set to fraCustom in the earlier call to BeforeRenameFile. It lets the user handle the requested operation in the way they want. The user code must fulfil the operation (for example, rename a database entry, if building a virtualized server), and return the operation result as the event's OperationResult parameter.

If the Action parameter was set to fraAuto, RenameFile is not called. The server performs the operation automatically.

The third event, AfterRenameFile, fires upon completion of the operation, either in automatic or custom mode. The user code can check and/or adjust the result to be returned to the client.

To summarize:

• If Action is set to fraAuto, the next call about this operation will be to AfterRenameFile.
• If Action is set to fraCustom, the next call about the operation will be to RenameFile, and after that to AfterRenameFile.
• If Action is set to fraAbort, the operation is rejected and no further calls about it are performed.

Most of the server components shipped with SecureBlackbox are highly customizable, allowing the user to override or alter the way the clients' requests are handled by default. The customization feature paves the way for creation of bespoke or virtualized server solutions that work over standardized protocols.

The possibility of customization is typically offered through a three-step virtualization model. Every customizable operation or request that can be handled by the server - say, RenameFile - is represented with a triple of events:

• BeforeRenameFile
• RenameFile
• AfterRenameFile

The first event fires right after the respective request has been received from a client. It provides the details of the operation, such as the original and target file names, and, importantly, a by-reference (writable) Action parameter. The event handler can set the Action parameter to one of the three settings given below. The setting chosen defines the further operation flow:

• fraAuto: the operation shall be handled automatically by the server: in this case, a file will be searched in the provided local directory and renamed.
• fraCustom: indicates that the user wants to take care of the operation by themselves. If this setting is chosen, the server takes no action, and instead fires the RenameFile event shortly after BeforeRenameFile completes. The user is expected to handle RenameFile and perform the requested action - that is, rename the file - manually.
• fraAbort: the operation should be aborted as not supported/allowed. Neither the server nor the user are expected to perform it.

The second event (RenameFile) only fires if Action was set to fraCustom in the earlier call to BeforeRenameFile. It lets the user handle the requested operation in the way they want. The user code must fulfil the operation (for example, rename a database entry, if building a virtualized server), and return the operation result as the event's OperationResult parameter.

BeforeVerify Event (KMIPServer Class)

Notifies the application about the initiation of the verify operation.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void beforeVerify(KMIPServerBeforeVerifyEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerBeforeVerifyEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public String objectId;
  public String hashAlgorithm;
  public boolean inputIsHash;
  public String correlationValue; //read-write
  public int action; //read-write
}

Remarks

The component fires this event to notify the application about the initiation of the verification operation. The ObjectId parameter contains a reference to the verification key.

Use the Action parameter to indicate the procedure you want to use for this request. See the

Handling and overriding server operations using the Three-Step Virtualization

Most of the server components shipped with SecureBlackbox are highly customizable, allowing the user to override or alter the way the clients' requests are handled by default. The customization feature paves the way for creation of bespoke or virtualized server solutions that work over standardized protocols.

The possibility of customization is typically offered through a three-step virtualization model. Every customizable operation or request that can be handled by the server - say, RenameFile - is represented with a triple of events:

• BeforeRenameFile
• RenameFile
• AfterRenameFile

The first event fires right after the respective request has been received from a client. It provides the details of the operation, such as the original and target file names, and, importantly, a by-reference (writable) Action parameter. The event handler can set the Action parameter to one of the three settings given below. The setting chosen defines the further operation flow:

• fraAuto: the operation shall be handled automatically by the server: in this case, a file will be searched in the provided local directory and renamed.
• fraCustom: indicates that the user wants to take care of the operation by themselves. If this setting is chosen, the server takes no action, and instead fires the RenameFile event shortly after BeforeRenameFile completes. The user is expected to handle RenameFile and perform the requested action - that is, rename the file - manually.
• fraAbort: the operation should be aborted as not supported/allowed. Neither the server nor the user are expected to perform it.

The second event (RenameFile) only fires if Action was set to fraCustom in the earlier call to BeforeRenameFile. It lets the user handle the requested operation in the way they want. The user code must fulfil the operation (for example, rename a database entry, if building a virtualized server), and return the operation result as the event's OperationResult parameter.

If the Action parameter was set to fraAuto, RenameFile is not called. The server performs the operation automatically.

The third event, AfterRenameFile, fires upon completion of the operation, either in automatic or custom mode. The user code can check and/or adjust the result to be returned to the client.

To summarize:

• If Action is set to fraAuto, the next call about this operation will be to AfterRenameFile.
• If Action is set to fraCustom, the next call about the operation will be to RenameFile, and after that to AfterRenameFile.
• If Action is set to fraAbort, the operation is rejected and no further calls about it are performed.

public class KMIPServerExternalSignEvent {
  public long connectionID;
  public String operationId;
  public String hashAlgorithm;
  public String pars;
  public String data;
  public String signedData; //read-write
}

Remarks

Assign a handler to this event if you need to delegate a low-level signing operation to an external, remote, or custom signing engine. Depending on the settings, the handler will receive a hashed or unhashed value to be signed.

The event handler must pass the value of Data to the signer, obtain the signature, and pass it back to the class via the SignedData parameter.

OperationId provides a comment about the operation and its origin. It depends on the exact class being used, and may be empty. HashAlgorithm specifies the hash algorithm being used for the operation, and Pars contains algorithm-dependent parameters.

The class uses base16 (hex) encoding for the Data, SignedData, and Pars parameters. If your signing engine uses a different input and output encoding, you may need to decode and/or encode the data before and/or after the signing.

A sample MD5 hash encoded in base16: a0dee2a0382afbb09120ffa7ccd8a152 - lower case base16 A0DEE2A0382AFBB09120FFA7CCD8A152 - upper case base16

A sample event handler that uses the .NET RSACryptoServiceProvider class may look like the following: signer.OnExternalSign += (s, e) => { var cert = new X509Certificate2("cert.pfx", "", X509KeyStorageFlags.Exportable); var key = (RSACryptoServiceProvider)cert.PrivateKey; var dataToSign = e.Data.FromBase16String(); var signedData = key.SignHash(dataToSign, "2.16.840.1.101.3.4.2.1"); e.SignedData = signedData.ToBase16String(); };

RevokeObject Event (KMIPServer Class)

Instructs the application to revoke an object.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void revokeObject(KMIPServerRevokeObjectEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerRevokeObjectEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public String objectId;
  public int reasonCode;
  public String reasonMessage;
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

The server uses this event to relay a client's Revoke Object request to the application.

The application must mark the requested object (ObjectId) as revoked, providing ReasonCode and ReasonMessage as evidence.

RNGGenerate Event (KMIPServer Class)

Asks the application for another block of random numbers.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void RNGGenerate(KMIPServerRNGGenerateEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerRNGGenerateEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public int dataLength;
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

The server uses this event to request another chunk of random data from the application, following a client's PRNG Generate request.

An application that handles this event must use its PRNG to generate DataLength bytes of data and pass that data buffer back to the server via the SetClientBytes method.

RNGSeed Event (KMIPServer Class)

Tells the application to seed the random number generator.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void RNGSeed(KMIPServerRNGSeedEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerRNGSeedEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public byte[] data;
  public int bytesUsed; //read-write
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

The server component uses this event to notify the application about the client's RNG Seed call. The application that handles this event must seed the provided data to its PRNG and return the number of BytesUsed along with the OperationStatus.

SetAttribute Event (KMIPServer Class)

Passes a set-attribute request to the application.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void setAttribute(KMIPServerSetAttributeEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerSetAttributeEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public String objectId;
  public String attributeName;
  public String attributeValue;
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

The server component uses this event to tell the application that a certain attribute on an object should be set. This event only fires if the application chose to handle the edit operation manually in BeforeEdit event handler.

The handler of this event should attempt to set the AttributeName attribute of the respective object as requested and return the operation result in the OperationStatus parameter.

Sign Event (KMIPServer Class)

Instructs the application to sign data with a private key.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void sign(KMIPServerSignEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerSignEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public String objectId;
  public String algorithm;
  public String hashAlgorithm;
  public boolean inputIsHash;
  public byte[] data;
  public boolean initIndicator;
  public boolean finalIndicator;
  public String correlationValue; //read-write
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

The server used this event to request the application to sign the provided Data (or the hash of the data, subject to InputIsHash) with the private key identified by the ObjectId parameter. This event is only fired if the application chose to proceed with the custom signing flow in the preceding BeforeSign event.

The InitIndicator and FinalIndicator provide guidance as to whether the data block is the first or last in a sequence of blocks. For blocks that are not last, generate a unique CorrelationValue to ensure continuity between consecutive data blocks.

TLSCertValidate Event (KMIPServer Class)

Fires when a client certificate needs to be validated.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void TLSCertValidate(KMIPServerTLSCertValidateEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerTLSCertValidateEvent {
  public long connectionID;
  public boolean accept; //read-write
}

  ...
}

public class KMIPServerTLSPSKEvent {
  public long connectionID;
  public String identity;
  public String PSK; //read-write
  public String ciphersuite; //read-write
}

Remarks

The class fires this event to report that a client has requested a TLS-PSK negotiation. ConnectionId indicates the unique connection ID that requested the PSK handshake.

Use Identity to look up for the corresponding pre-shared key in the server's database, then assign the key to the PSK parameter. If TLS 1.3 PSK is used, you will also need to assign the Ciphersuite parameter with the cipher suite associated with that identity and their key.

TLSShutdown Event (KMIPServer Class)

Reports closure of a TLS session.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void TLSShutdown(KMIPServerTLSShutdownEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerTLSShutdownEvent {
  public long connectionID;
}

Remarks

The class fires this event when a connected client closes their TLS session gracefully. This event is typically followed by a Disconnect, which marks the closure of the underlying TCP session.

ValidateChain Event (KMIPServer Class)

Passes the chain validation request to the application.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void validateChain(KMIPServerValidateChainEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerValidateChainEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public String objectIds;
  public int validity; //read-write
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

The server fires this event to notify the application about the received chain validation request. The application needs to build a chain out of certificates contained in the ObjectIds list, validate it, and return the validation result via the Validity parameter, which can take one of the following values:

Verify Event (KMIPServer Class)

KMIPServer fires this event to notify the application about a verification operation request, and expects the application to perform it.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void verify(KMIPServerVerifyEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerVerifyEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public String objectId;
  public String hashAlgorithm;
  public boolean inputIsHash;
  public byte[] data;
  public byte[] signatureData;
  public boolean initIndicator;
  public boolean finalIndicator;
  public int validationResult; //read-write
  public String correlationValue; //read-write
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to be notified about public key signature verification operations. For this event to be invoked, the fraCustom action needs to be previously returned from the BeforeVerify event.

The parameters of this event provide the details of the verification request:

• ObjectId: the key object to verify the signature with.
• HashAlgorithm: the hash algorithm to use for verification.
• InputIsHash: specifies whether Data contains the hash of the signed object or the object itself.
• Data: the signed data that needs to be verified.
• SignatureData: the signature data.
• InitIndicator: whether the provided data block starts a sequence of blocks.
• FinalIndicator: whether the provided data block ends a sequence of blocks.

Upon processing, set the ValidationResult and OperationStatus in accordance with the operation result.

Handling and overriding server operations using the Three-Step Virtualization

Most of the server components shipped with SecureBlackbox are highly customizable, allowing the user to override or alter the way the clients' requests are handled by default. The customization feature paves the way for creation of bespoke or virtualized server solutions that work over standardized protocols.

The possibility of customization is typically offered through a three-step virtualization model. Every customizable operation or request that can be handled by the server - say, RenameFile - is represented with a triple of events:

• BeforeRenameFile
• RenameFile
• AfterRenameFile

The first event fires right after the respective request has been received from a client. It provides the details of the operation, such as the original and target file names, and, importantly, a by-reference (writable) Action parameter. The event handler can set the Action parameter to one of the three settings given below. The setting chosen defines the further operation flow:

• fraAuto: the operation shall be handled automatically by the server: in this case, a file will be searched in the provided local directory and renamed.
• fraCustom: indicates that the user wants to take care of the operation by themselves. If this setting is chosen, the server takes no action, and instead fires the RenameFile event shortly after BeforeRenameFile completes. The user is expected to handle RenameFile and perform the requested action - that is, rename the file - manually.
• fraAbort: the operation should be aborted as not supported/allowed. Neither the server nor the user are expected to perform it.

The second event (RenameFile) only fires if Action was set to fraCustom in the earlier call to BeforeRenameFile. It lets the user handle the requested operation in the way they want. The user code must fulfil the operation (for example, rename a database entry, if building a virtualized server), and return the operation result as the event's OperationResult parameter.

If the Action parameter was set to fraAuto, RenameFile is not called. The server performs the operation automatically.

The third event, AfterRenameFile, fires upon completion of the operation, either in automatic or custom mode. The user code can check and/or adjust the result to be returned to the client.

To summarize:

• If Action is set to fraAuto, the next call about this operation will be to AfterRenameFile.
• If Action is set to fraCustom, the next call about the operation will be to RenameFile, and after that to AfterRenameFile.
• If Action is set to fraAbort, the operation is rejected and no further calls about it are performed.

VerifyHash Event (KMIPServer Class)

Delegates the hash verification operation to a custom handler.

Syntax

public class DefaultKMIPServerEventListener implements KMIPServerEventListener {
  ...
  public void verifyHash(KMIPServerVerifyHashEvent e) {}
  ...
}

public class KMIPServerVerifyHashEvent {
  public long connectionId;
  public String objectId;
  public String hashAlgorithm;
  public byte[] data;
  public byte[] hash;
  public boolean initIndicator;
  public boolean finalIndicator;
  public boolean isValid; //read-write
  public String correlationValue; //read-write
  public int operationStatus; //read-write
}

Remarks

This event allows the application to wiretap into the server's verification procedure. It is invoked if the Action parameter in the preceding BeforeVerify hash call was set to fraCustom.

KMIPServer uses this event to delegate both hash and MAC (keyed hash) verifications.

The ObjectId parameter contains the identifier of the key object that should be used to calculate the MAC code. This parameter is empty if a simple hashing operation is requested. The Data parameter contains the data that should be verified against the hash.

The Hash parameter contains the hash or MAC record. The Algorithm parameter specifies the hash algorithm.

In this handler, the application should calculate an Algorithm hash over Data, and verify that the result matches Hash. If the result does match, it should set the IsValid parameter to true. If the hashes do not match, or if any of the call parameters are malformed or not understood by the application, it should set IsValid to false.
