Get algorithms - Neuron Agent API

Overview

Allows the client to retrieve a list of available cryptographic algorithms on the server. These algorithms can be used to create keys. These keys are necessary in order to apply for legal identities, which are then used to sign smart contracts.

HTTP request

POST /Agent/Crypto/GetAlgorithms

Authentication

Requires a valid JWT bearer token.

Request (JSON)

{
}

Response (JSON)

{
	"Algorithms": 
	{
		"localName":Required(Str(PLocalName)),
		"namespace":Required(Str(PNamespace)),
		"securityStrength":Required(Int(PSecurityStrength)),
		"safe":Required(Boolean(PSafe)),
		"slow":Required(Boolean(PSlow)),
		"pqc":Required(Boolean(PPqc)),
		"score":Required(Int(PScore))
	}?[]
}

Response parameters

Parameter	Description
PLocalName	Local Name of the algorithm.
PNamespace	Namespace, defining the algorithm.
PSecurityStrength	Security strength of algorithm (in bits).
PSafe	If the algorithm is considered safe according to https://safecurves.cr.yp.to/.
PSlow	If the algorithm is slow (i.e. computation intensive).
PPqc	If the algorithm represents Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC).
PScore	Algorithm score. Can be used, together with PSecurityStrength to order algorithms.
