Class PBKDF2

Implemented Interfaces:
Cloneable, IRandom

public class PBKDF2
extends BasePRNG
implements Cloneable

An implementation of the key derivation function KDF2 from PKCS #5: Password-Based Cryptography (PBE). This KDF is essentially a way to transform a password and a salt into a stream of random bytes, which may then be used to initialize a cipher or a MAC.

This version uses a MAC as its pseudo-random function, and the password is used as the key.

PBKDF2

public PBKDF2(IMac mac)
Creates a new PBKDF2 object. The argument is the MAC that will serve as the pseudo-random function. The MAC does not need to be initialized.
Parameters:
mac - The pseudo-random function.
