I look for an answer for following problem:
In the mozilla was imported a client certificate.
1.) How is the way to get this certificate inside an applet
for using for encryption? (Assuming java sun plugin
2.) How is the way to use this certificate for decryption
of data encrypted with certificates public key?
Erik, What problem are you trying to solve?\
Are you trying to establish a secure channel between browser/client
and server?
Are you trying to create and receive encrypted messages that may
travel through insecure store-and-forward networks?
or
??
Hi,
it is the second problem I have to solve. Encryption will made
with public key encryption/decryption. An applet should upload/request
data to/from server in separate connection ...
On server side system has the possibility for key-management.
On client side exist the possibility to store certificate and
key on local file system and work with signed applet to read in
this certs/key.
But I look for a way to use for encryption/decryption an certificate
which was imported in the browser (e.g. certificate was requested from
CA inside the browser and downloaded later).
For encryption I need the public key from certificate. I assume there
exist a way to request the client certificate from browser inside the
applet?
But for decryption I have no idea ...
Erik
