Create a BytesKeyGenerator that uses a SecureRandom to generate keys of a custom length.
Params:
  • keyLength – the key length in bytes, e.g. 16, for a 16 byte key.

Create a BytesKeyGenerator that returns a single, shared SecureRandom key of a custom length.
Params:
  • keyLength – the key length in bytes, e.g. 16, for a 16 byte key.

Creates a StringKeyGenerator that hex-encodes SecureRandom keys of 8 bytes in length. The hex-encoded string is keyLength * 2 characters in length.
