A public key infrastructure (PKI) is a security architecture that provides an increased level of confidence when exchanging information over the Internet.
This chapter provides information about using the packages in Oracle PKI SDK, which is a set of software development kits (SDKs) for developing PKI-aware applications.
This chapter contains the following topics:
This section provides information about using the Oracle public key infrastructure (PKI) Software Development Kit (SDK) for certificate management protocol (CMP). Oracle PKI CMP SDK allows Java developers to quickly implement certificate management functionality such as issuing and renewing certificates, creating and publishing CRLs, and providing key recovery capabilities.
This chapter contains the following topics:
The Oracle PKI CMP SDK provides the following features and functionality:
Oracle PKI CMP SDK conforms to RFC 2510, and is compatible with other products that conform to this certificate management protocol (CMP) specification. RFC 2510 defines protocol messages for all aspects of certificate creation and management.
Oracle PKI CMP SDK conforms to RFC 2511, and is compatible with other products that conform to this certificate request message format (CRMF) specification. RFC 2511 describes the Certificate Request Message Format (CRMF), which is used to convey X.509 certificate requests to a Certification Authority (CA).
The Oracle PKI CMP SDK toolkit contains the following packages:
The oracle.security.crypto.cmp package provides classes that implement certificate management protocol (CMP) as described in RFC 2510, and certificate request message format (CRMF) as described in RFC 2511.
The oracle.security.crypto.cmp.attribute package provides attribute classes for registration controls, registration information, and general information. This package includes the following classes and their subclasses:
RegistrationControl
RegistrationInfo
InfoTypeAndValue (which extends oracle.security.crypto.cert.AttributeTypeAndValue)
The oracle.security.crypto.cmp.transport package provides classes for CMP and CRMF transport protocols. It includes the TCPMessage class and its specific message-type subclasses.
The Oracle Security Developer Tools are installed with Oracle Application Server in ORACLE_HOME. This section provides information for setting up your environment for Oracle PKI CMP SDK. It contains the following topics:
In order to use Oracle PKI CMP SDK, your system must have the Java Development Kit (JDK) version 1.5 or higher.
Your CLASSPATH environment variable must contain the full path and file names to all of the required jar and class files. Make sure the following items are included in your CLASSPATH:
osdt_core.jar
osdt_cert.jar
osdt_cms.jar
osdt_cmp.jar
To set your CLASSPATH on Windows:
In your Windows Control Panel, select System.
In the System Properties dialog, select the Advanced tab.
Click Environment Variables.
In the User Variables section, click New to add a CLASSPATH environment variable for your user profile. If a CLASSPATH environment variable already exists, select it and click Edit.
Add the full path and file names for all of the required jar and class files to the CLASSPATH. For example:
%ORACLE_HOME%\modules\oracle.osdt_11.1.1\osdt_core.jar; %ORACLE_HOME%\modules\oracle.osdt_11.1.1\osdt_cert.jar; %ORACLE_HOME%\modules\oracle.osdt_11.1.1\osdt_cms.jar; %ORACLE_HOME%\modules\oracle.osdt_11.1.1\osdt_cmp.jar
Click OK.
On UNIX, set your CLASSPATH environment variable to include the full path and file names of all the required jar and class files. For example:
setenv CLASSPATH $CLASSPATH:$ORACLE_HOME/modules/oracle.osdt_11.1.1/osdt_core.jar: $ORACLE_HOME/modules/oracle.osdt_11.1.1/osdt_cert.jar: $ORACLE_HOME/modules/oracle.osdt_11.1.1/osdt_cms.jar: $ORACLE_HOME/modules/oracle.osdt_11.1.1/osdt_cmp.jar

This section provides information about using the Oracle Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) Software Development Kit (SDK). Oracle PKI OCSP SDK allows Java developers to quickly develop OCSP-enabled client applications and OCSP responders that conform to RFC 2560 specifications.
This section contains the following topics:
Oracle PKI OCSP SDK provides the following features and functionality:
Oracle PKI OCSP SDK conforms to RFC 2560 and is compatible with other products that conform to this specification, such as Valicert's Validation Authority. RFC 2560 specifies a protocol useful in determining the current status of a digital certificate without requiring CRLs.
The Oracle PKI OCSP SDK API provides classes and methods for constructing OCSP request messages that can be sent through HTTP to any RFC 2560 compliant validation authority.
The Oracle PKI OCSP SDK API provides classes and methods for constructing responses to OCSP request messages, and an OCSP server implementation that you can use as a basis for developing your own OCSP server to check the validity of certificates you have issued.
The Oracle Security Developer Tools are installed with Oracle Application Server in ORACLE_HOME. This section provides information for setting up your environment for Oracle PKI OCSP SDK. It contains the following topics:

This section provides information about using the Oracle PKI TSP SDK, which allows Java developers to quickly implement time-stamping functionality within a public key infrastructure (PKI) framework.
This section contains the following topics:
Oracle PKI TSP SDK provides the following features and functionality:
Oracle PKI TSP SDK conforms to RFC 3161 and is compatible with other products that conform to this time stamp protocol (TSP) specification.
