Generate ECC (elliptic curve cryptography) key pairs using the AWS CloudHSM KMU - AWS CloudHSM

Generate ECC (elliptic curve cryptography) key pairs using the AWS CloudHSM KMU

To generate an ECC key pair for AWS CloudHSM, use the genECCKeyPair command in AWS CloudHSM key_mgmt_util. To see all available options, including a list of the supported elliptic curves, use the genECCKeyPair -h command.

The following example generates an ECC key pair using the P-384 elliptic curve defined in NIST FIPS publication 186-4.

Command: genECCKeyPair -i 14 -l ecc-p384 Cfm3GenerateKeyPair returned: 0x00 : HSM Return: SUCCESS Cfm3GenerateKeyPair: public key handle: 524297 private key handle: 524298 Cluster Error Status Node id 0 and err state 0x00000000 : HSM Return: SUCCESS Node id 1 and err state 0x00000000 : HSM Return: SUCCESS Node id 2 and err state 0x00000000 : HSM Return: SUCCESS
