Class KeyStore

java.lang.Object
  java.security.KeyStore

public class KeyStore
extends Object
extends Object

This class represents a storage facility for cryptographic keys and certificates.

A KeyStore manages different types of entries. Each type of entry implements the KeyStore.Entry interface. Three basic KeyStore.Entry implementations are provided:

KeyStore.PrivateKeyEntry
This type of entry holds a cryptographic PrivateKey, which is optionally stored in a protected format to prevent unauthorized access. It is also accompanied by a certificate chain for the corresponding public key.
Private keys and certificate chains are used by a given entity for self-authentication. Applications for this authentication include software distribution organizations which sign JAR files as part of releasing and/or licensing software.
KeyStore.SecretKeyEntry
This type of entry holds a cryptographic SecretKey, which is optionally stored in a protected format to prevent unauthorized access.
KeyStore.TrustedCertificateEntry
This type of entry contains a single public key Certificate belonging to another party. It is called a trusted certificate because the keystore owner trusts that the public key in the certificate indeed belongs to the identity identified by the subject (owner) of the certificate.
This type of entry can be used to authenticate other parties.

Each entry in a keystore is identified by an "alias" string. In the case of private keys and their associated certificate chains, these strings distinguish among the different ways in which the entity may authenticate itself. For example, the entity may authenticate itself using different certificate authorities, or using different public key algorithms.

Whether aliases are case sensitive is implementation dependent. In order to avoid problems, it is recommended not to use aliases in a KeyStore that only differ in case.

Whether keystores are persistent, and the mechanisms used by the keystore if it is persistent, are not specified here. This allows use of a variety of techniques for protecting sensitive (e.g., private or secret) keys. Smart cards or other integrated cryptographic engines (SafeKeyper) are one option, and simpler mechanisms such as files may also be used (in a variety of formats).

Typical ways to request a KeyStore object include relying on the default type and providing a specific keystore type.

To rely on the default type:
```
    KeyStore ks = KeyStore.getInstance(KeyStore.getDefaultType());
 
```
The system will return a keystore implementation for the default type.
To provide a specific keystore type:
```
      KeyStore ks = KeyStore.getInstance("JKS");
 
```
The system will return the most preferred implementation of the specified keystore type available in the environment.

Before a keystore can be accessed, it must be loaded.

    KeyStore ks = KeyStore.getInstance(KeyStore.getDefaultType());

    // get user password and file input stream
    char[] password = getPassword();

    java.io.FileInputStream fis = null;
    try {
        fis = new java.io.FileInputStream("keyStoreName");
        ks.load(fis, password);
    } finally {
        if (fis != null) {
            fis.close();
        }
    }

To create an empty keystore using the above load method, pass null as the InputStream argument.

Once the keystore has been loaded, it is possible to read existing entries from the keystore, or to write new entries into the keystore:

    // get my private key
    KeyStore.PrivateKeyEntry pkEntry = (KeyStore.PrivateKeyEntry)
        ks.getEntry("privateKeyAlias", password);
    PrivateKey myPrivateKey = pkEntry.getPrivateKey();

    // save my secret key
    javax.crypto.SecretKey mySecretKey;
    KeyStore.SecretKeyEntry skEntry =
        new KeyStore.SecretKeyEntry(mySecretKey);
    ks.setEntry("secretKeyAlias", skEntry, 
        new KeyStore.PasswordProtection(password));

    // store away the keystore
    java.io.FileOutputStream fos = null;
    try {
        fos = new java.io.FileOutputStream("newKeyStoreName");
        ks.store(fos, password);
    } finally {
        if (fos != null) {
            fos.close();
        }
    }

Note that although the same password may be used to load the keystore, to protect the private key entry, to protect the secret key entry, and to store the keystore (as is shown in the sample code above), different passwords or other protection parameters may also be used.

A password may be given to unlock the keystore (e.g. the keystore resides on a hardware token device), or to check the integrity of the keystore data. If a password is not given for integrity checking, then integrity checking is not performed.

In order to create an empty keystore, or if the keystore cannot be initialized from a stream, pass null as the stream argument.

Note that if this keystore has already been loaded, it is reinitialized and loaded again from the given input stream.

Parameters:: stream - the input stream from which the keystore is loaded, or null; password - the password used to check the integrity of the keystore, the password used to unlock the keystore, or null
Throws:: IOException - if there is an I/O or format problem with the keystore data, if a password is required but not given, or if the given password was incorrect. If the error is due to a wrong password, the cause of the IOException should be an UnrecoverableKeyException; NoSuchAlgorithmException - if the algorithm used to check the integrity of the keystore cannot be found; CertificateException - if any of the certificates in the keystore could not be loaded

load

public final void load(KeyStore.LoadStoreParameter param)
                throws IOException,
                       NoSuchAlgorithmException,
                       CertificateException

Loads this keystore using the given LoadStoreParameter.

Note that if this KeyStore has already been loaded, it is reinitialized and loaded again from the given parameter.

Parameters:: param - the LoadStoreParameter that specifies how to load the keystore, which may be null
Throws:: IllegalArgumentException - if the given LoadStoreParameter input is not recognized; IOException - if there is an I/O or format problem with the keystore data. If the error is due to an incorrect ProtectionParameter (e.g. wrong password) the cause of the IOException should be an UnrecoverableKeyException; NoSuchAlgorithmException - if the algorithm used to check the integrity of the keystore cannot be found; CertificateException - if any of the certificates in the keystore could not be loaded
Since:: 1.5

getEntry

public final KeyStore.Entry getEntry(String alias,
                                     KeyStore.ProtectionParameter protParam)
                              throws NoSuchAlgorithmException,
                                     UnrecoverableEntryException,
                                     KeyStoreException

Gets a keystore Entry for the specified alias with the specified protection parameter.

Parameters:: alias - get the keystore Entry for this alias; protParam - the ProtectionParameter used to protect the Entry, which may be null
Returns:: the keystore Entry for the specified alias, or null if there is no such entry
Throws:: NullPointerException - if alias is null; NoSuchAlgorithmException - if the algorithm for recovering the entry cannot be found; UnrecoverableEntryException - if the specified protParam were insufficient or invalid; UnrecoverableKeyException - if the entry is a PrivateKeyEntry or SecretKeyEntry and the specified protParam does not contain the information needed to recover the key (e.g. wrong password); KeyStoreException - if the keystore has not been initialized (loaded).
Since:: 1.5

setEntry

public final void setEntry(String alias,
                           KeyStore.Entry entry,
                           KeyStore.ProtectionParameter protParam)
                    throws KeyStoreException

Saves a keystore Entry under the specified alias. The protection parameter is used to protect the Entry.

If an entry already exists for the specified alias, it is overridden.

Parameters:: alias - save the keystore Entry under this alias; entry - the Entry to save; protParam - the ProtectionParameter used to protect the Entry, which may be null
Throws:: NullPointerException - if alias or entry is null; KeyStoreException - if the keystore has not been initialized (loaded), or if this operation fails for some other reason
Since:: 1.5

entryInstanceOf

public final boolean entryInstanceOf(String alias,
                                     Class<? extends KeyStore.Entry> entryClass)
                              throws KeyStoreException

Determines if the keystore Entry for the specified alias is an instance or subclass of the specified entryClass.

Parameters:: alias - the alias name; entryClass - the entry class
Returns:: true if the keystore Entry for the specified alias is an instance or subclass of the specified entryClass, false otherwise
Throws:: NullPointerException - if alias or entryClass is null; KeyStoreException - if the keystore has not been initialized (loaded)
Since:: 1.5
