Class TSecurityManager

Description

TSecurityManager class

TSecurityManager provides private keys, hashing and encryption functionalities that may be used by other PRADO components, such as viewstate persister, cookies.

TSecurityManager is mainly used to protect data from being tampered and viewed. It can generate HMAC and encrypt the data. The private key used to generate HMAC is set by ValidationKey. The key used to encrypt data is specified by EncryptionKey. If the above keys are not explicitly set, random keys will be generated and used.

To prefix data with an HMAC, call hashData(). To validate if data is tampered, call validateData(), which will return the real data if it is not tampered. The algorithm used to generated HMAC is specified by Validation.

To encrypt and decrypt data, call encrypt() and decrypt() respectively. The encryption algorithm can be set by Encryption.

Note, to use encryption, the PHP Mcrypt extension must be loaded.

Methods
computeHMAC (line 228)

Computes the HMAC for the data with getValidationKey.

  • return: the HMAC for the data
  • access: protected
string computeHMAC (string $data)
  • string $data: data to be generated HMAC
decrypt (line 182)

Decrypts data with getEncryptionKey.

  • return: the decrypted data
  • access: public
  • throws: TNotSupportedException if PHP Mcrypt extension is not loaded
string decrypt (string $data)
  • string $data: data to be decrypted.
encrypt (line 166)

Encrypts data with getEncryptionKey.

  • return: the encrypted data
  • access: public
  • throws: TNotSupportedException if PHP Mcrypt extension is not loaded
string encrypt (string $data)
  • string $data: data to be encrypted.
generateRandomKey (line 64)

Generates a random key.

  • access: protected
void generateRandomKey ()
getEncryption (line 147)
  • return: the algorithm used to encrypt/decrypt data. Defaults to '3DES'.
  • access: public
string getEncryption ()
getEncryptionKey (line 104)
  • return: the private key used to encrypt/decrypt data. If the key is not explicitly set, a random one is generated and used.
  • access: public
string getEncryptionKey ()
getValidation (line 131)
  • return: hashing algorithm used to generate HMAC. Defaults to 'SHA1'.
  • access: public
string getValidation ()
getValidationKey (line 76)
  • return: the private key used to generate HMAC. If the key is not explicitly set, a random one is generated and used.
  • access: public
string getValidationKey ()
hashData (line 197)

Prefixes data with an HMAC.

  • return: data prefixed with HMAC
  • access: public
string hashData (string $data)
  • string $data: data to be hashed.
init (line 56)

Initializes the module.

The security module is registered with the application.

  • access: public
void init (TXmlElement $config)

Redefinition of:
TModule::init()
Initializes the module.
setEncryption (line 155)
  • access: public
  • throws: TNotSupportedException Do not call this method presently.
void setEncryption (mixed $value)
setEncryptionKey (line 121)
  • access: public
  • throws: TInvalidDataValueException if the key is shorter than 8 characters.
void setEncryptionKey (string $value)
  • string $value: the key used to encrypt/decrypt data.
setValidation (line 139)
  • access: public
void setValidation (string $value)
  • string $value: hashing algorithm used to generate HMAC. Valid values include 'SHA1' and 'MD5'.
setValidationKey (line 93)
  • access: public
  • throws: TInvalidDataValueException if the key is shorter than 8 characters.
void setValidationKey (string $value)
  • string $value: the key used to generate HMAC
validateData (line 210)

Validates if data is tampered.

  • return: the real data with HMAC stripped off. False if the data is tampered.
  • access: public
string validateData (string $data)
  • string $data: data to be validated. The data must be previously generated using hashData().
