class OpenSSL::HMACError
Document-class: OpenSSL::HMAC
OpenSSL::HMAC
allows computing Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC
). It is a type of message authentication code (MAC) involving a hash function in combination with a key. HMAC
can be used to verify the integrity of a message as well as the authenticity.
OpenSSL::HMAC
has a similar interface to OpenSSL::Digest
.
HMAC-SHA256 using one-shot interface¶ ↑
key = "key" data = "message-to-be-authenticated" mac = OpenSSL::HMAC.hexdigest("SHA256", key, data) #=> "cddb0db23f469c8bf072b21fd837149bd6ace9ab771cceef14c9e517cc93282e"
HMAC-SHA256 using incremental interface¶ ↑
data1 = File.binread("file1") data2 = File.binread("file2") key = "key" hmac = OpenSSL::HMAC.new(key, 'SHA256') hmac << data1 hmac << data2 mac = hmac.digest
