Internet has very little to offer for RSA on iOS. Over complicated code, no documentation or using 3rd Part Frameworks when it can be done using native Security
framework on iOS
Note: Most methods return Base64 encoded strings.
// Start a instance using +(void)sharedInstance
// Then call this method with 3 unique string as indentifiers
// Identifier in simple words is just names to used to remember these keys in a keychain
- (void)setIdentifierForPublicKey:(NSString *)pubIdentifier
privateKey:(NSString *)privIdentifier
serverPublicKey:(NSString *)servPublicIdentifier;
// Call this to generate the a pair of public and private keys for the mobile
- (void)generateKeyPairRSACompleteBlock:(GenerateSuccessBlock)_success;
- (NSString *)encryptUsingPublicKeyWithData:(NSData *)data;
- (NSString *)encryptUsingPrivateKeyWithData:(NSData*)data;
- (NSString *)decryptUsingPublicKeyWithData:(NSData *)data;
- (NSString *)decryptUsingPrivateKeyWithData:(NSData*)data;
- (BOOL)setPublicKey:(NSString *)keyAsBase64;
- (NSString *)getPublicKeyAsBase64;
// Use setPublicKey before using this method to set the server public key
- (NSString *)encryptUsingServerPublicKeyWithData:(NSData *)data;
Great many thanks to Berin for his blog post on getting this working.
- (BOOL)setPublicKeyFromJavaServer:(NSString *)keyAsBase64;
- (NSString *)getPublicKeyAsBase64ForJavaServer;
