DSAKey

  • DSAKey is the standard interface for DSA public and private keys, used in the Digital Signature Algorithm as defined by NIST's FIPS-186.

  • It provides access to the DSA-specific key parameters, which are publicly accessible and not considered secret.

  • This interface is extended by DSAPrivateKey and DSAPublicKey for handling private and public keys respectively.
