◆ estimated_strength()

virtual size_t Botan::Public_Key::estimated_strength ( ) const
pure virtual

Return the estimated strength of the underlying key against the best currently known attack. Note that this ignores anything but pure attacks against the key itself and do not take into account padding schemes, usage mistakes, etc which might reduce the strength. However it does suffice to provide an upper bound.

Returns
estimated strength in bits

◆ key_length()

virtual size_t Botan::Public_Key::key_length ( ) const
pure virtual

Return an integer value best approximating the length of the primary security parameter. For example for RSA this will be the size of the modulus, for ECDSA the size of the ECC group, and for McEliece the size of the code will be returned.

Implemented in Botan::TPM_PrivateKey, Botan::Curve25519_PublicKey, Botan::DL_Scheme_PublicKey, Botan::EC_PublicKey, Botan::Ed25519_PublicKey, Botan::McEliece_PublicKey, Botan::RSA_PublicKey, Botan::XMSS_PublicKey, Botan::XMSS_WOTS_PublicKey, and Botan::XMSS_WOTS_Addressed_PublicKey.

◆ message_part_size()

virtual size_t Botan::Public_Key::message_part_size ( ) const
inlinevirtual

Returns how large each of the message parts refered to by message_parts() is

This function is public but applications should have few reasons to ever call this.

Returns
size of the message parts in bits

Reimplemented in Botan::DSA_PublicKey, Botan::ECDSA_PublicKey, Botan::ECGDSA_PublicKey, Botan::ECKCDSA_PublicKey, Botan::GOST_3410_PublicKey, and Botan::SM2_PublicKey.

◆ message_parts()

virtual size_t Botan::Public_Key::message_parts ( ) const
inlinevirtual

Returns more than 1 if the output of this algorithm (ciphertext, signature) should be treated as more than one value. This is used for algorithms like DSA and ECDSA, where the (r,s) output pair can be encoded as either a plain binary list or a TLV tagged DER encoding depending on the protocol.

This function is public but applications should have few reasons to ever call this.

Returns
number of message parts
