Our Online Store have the new products: RFID antenna board. Currently it can work with JC10M24R and JCOP4 card chips.
Compared with normal cards, the antenna board module has a smaller size and fixed holes, which is easy to integrate in the IOT(Internet Of Things) project.

How to know supported encryption/sign algorithms in a Javacard

Post by NikerCR » Fri Jun 19, 2015 7:05 am

As the subject mentioned, how can i know all the encryption algorithms the Javacard supports?

The code below can check the specified algorithm your card supports or not. If the algorithm is supported, the instance creation will succeed. Otherwise,CryptoException.NO_SUCH_ALGORITHM is thrown. e.g. ALG_DES_CBC_NOPAD algorithm:

Code: Select all

try {
    m_cipher = Cipher.getInstance(ALG_DES_CBC_NOPAD, false);
    supported = true;
   }
catch (CryptoException e) {
    if (e.getReason() == CryptoException.NO_SUCH_ALGORITHM))
           {
             supported = false;
            }
   else {
             // other errors
         }
   }

That's so nice of you. But,it takes too long to test all the possible algorithms successively . Is there any method to know all the algorithms supported by the given card at a time ?

So simple, ask your card provider. If you did not know the card provider, you can only test yourself.
sense and simplicity
