AsymmetricAlgorithm

Open Beta Documentation Amazon offers this technical documentation as part of a pre-release, open beta. The features described might change as Amazon receives feedback and iterates on the features. For the most current feature information, see the Release Notes.

Represents an asymmetric cryptographic algorithm. Asymmetric algorithms use different keys for encryption and decryption, typically a public key for encryption and a private key for decryption.

Properties

AUTHENTICATED_DH

readonly static AUTHENTICATED_DH: "AuthenticatedDh" = 'AuthenticatedDh'

Constant representing the algorithm used by the Authenticated Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol.

ECDH

readonly static ECDH: "Ecdh" = "Ecdh"

Constant representing the algorithm used by the ECDH (Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman) key agreement protocol.

ECDSA

readonly static ECDSA: "Ecdsa" = 'Ecdsa'

Constant representing the ECDSA (Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm). ECDSA is a widely used algorithm for digital signatures based on elliptic curve cryptography.

RSA

readonly static RSA: "Rsa" = 'Rsa'

Constant representing the RSA algorithm. RSA is widely used for secure data transmission and digital signatures.

RSA_OAEP

readonly static RSA_OAEP: "Rsa-oaep" = 'Rsa-oaep'

Constant representing the RSA algorithm with OAEP padding. OAEP (Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding) is a widely used padding scheme for RSA encryption that provides better security against certain types of attacks.
