I want to use ECC in order to exchange a Session Key for a long-term data transmission. This key exchange should be encrypted using ECC-192bit (curvename: prime192v1). That means that i want to implement an own hybrid encryption model.
Therefore i used bouncy castle for JAVA. I implemented ECDSA and it works fine. I implemented the AES-128 bit symmetric encryption and this also works fine. But i cant implement a simple Asymmetric encryption using ECC.
So my question: Can this asymmetric encryption implemented with bouncy castle at all?
This is my try to implement an ECC encryption using the AsymmetricBlockCipher interface. But this doesn't work.
Do I really have to implement my own ECCEngine like there is an implementation for the RSAEngine (RSACoreEngin)?
Here is my code:
