secret key java code example

Example 1: java secretkey

// create new key
SecretKey secretKey = KeyGenerator.getInstance("AES").generateKey();
// get base64 encoded version of the key
String encodedKey = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(secretKey.getEncoded());

Example 2: java secretkey

// decode the base64 encoded string
byte[] decodedKey = Base64.getDecoder().decode(encodedKey);
// rebuild key using SecretKeySpec
SecretKey originalKey = new SecretKeySpec(decodedKey, 0, decodedKey.length, "AES");
