Note that the private key is called “idrsa” and the public key is “idrsa.pub”, and they’re both in a folder called “.ssh” in your home folder. The Public Key. The public key (the one ending in.pub) goes on the remote server. If your server administrator provided you with a key to use, they’ve likely already taken care of this. Hi Using the newer methods in the SDK for iOS 10, I can generate private and public keys, with the private key residing in the Keychain. The public key. Generating a new SSH key. Open Terminal Terminal Git Bash. Paste the text below, substituting in your GitHub email address. $ ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C '[email protected]' This creates a new ssh key, using the provided email as a label. Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Hi,
I'm developing a Xamarin Forms app, and in iOS I want to create a RSA key-pair and be able to store the key-pair in the iOS KeyChain and retrieve the publicKey from iOS KeyChain anytime i want to. However i'm facing some problems due to the lack of documentation available on the internet about this issue.
So i created my RSA key pair this way, since i have to send the public key in DER format to a server (using BouncyCastle).

and then i need to store the keys on KeyChain but i can't find anything that helps me so i tried this way (byte[] value = RsaBytes):
First, i don't know if this is the best way to store anything is iOS KeyChain.
Second, when i get the 'ValueData' from KeyChain, i can't convert it back to a byte[] so i can't get my publicKey again anymore.
I get the key using the following method

I get the key using the following method
and i try to convert it back to a byte[] that represents my public key using the following methods:
No one of them is the same as RsaBytes:
So, summing up all the problems
1 - I don't know the best way to create an RSA key pair in iOS and get publicKey DER-encoded (so I used BouncyCastle)
2 - Don't know how to store it properly on KeyChain
3 - I can access the information i stored, however it's useless since I can't convert it back to a publicKey
4 - When trying to access the information the user should be prompt to use TouchID, always.

I can't find samples of this in the internet.. I would really appreciate some help.
Many thanks to everyone.

Use this command to generate RSA key pairs for your Cisco device (such as a router). keys are generated in pairs–one public RSA key and one private RSA key.
Ios Generate Rsa Public Keyboard
If your router already has RSA keys when you issue this command, you will be warned and prompted to replace the existing keys with new keys.
KEY GENERATION USING FINGER VEIN In this paper a method for cryptographic key generation from finger vein pattern were demonstrated. A schematic representation for proposed method from finger vein patterns is shown in Fig.2.Through the method:Using multiple finger vein patterns, key is generated. Cryptographic Key Generation from Finger Vein. Cryptographic key generation from finger vein.
NOTE: Before issuing this command, ensure that your router has a hostname and IP domain name configured (with the hostname and ipdomain-name commands).
You will be unable to complete the cryptokeygeneratersacommand without a hostname and IP domain name. (This situation is not true when you generate only a named key pair.)
Here are the steps to Enable SSH and Crypto Key setup : 2 config must requried for SSH
1 Setup Local VTY line User ID and password
router (Config) # Line VTY 0 15
router (Config-line)# login local
router (Config-line)# Exit
!!! create local login ID/Pass
router (Config)# username [loginid] password [cisco]
router (Config)# username loginid1 password cisco1
2. router (Config)# ip domain-name example.com
router (Config)# crypto key generate rsa
how many bits in the modulus [512] :1024
router (Config)# ip ssh version2
router (Config)# CTRL Z
Note | Secure Shell (SSH) may generate an additional RSA key pair if you generate a key pair on a router having no RSA keys. The additional key pair is used only by SSH and will have a name such as {router_FQDN }.server. For example, if a router name is “router1.cisco.com,” the key name is “router1.cisco.com.server.” |

This command is not saved in the router configuration; however, the RSA keys generated by this command are saved in the private configuration in NVRAM (which is never displayed to the user or backed up to another device) the next time the configuration is written to NVRAM.
Modulus Length
When you generate RSA keys, you will be prompted to enter a modulus length. The longer the modulus, the stronger the security. However, a longer modules take longer to generate (see the table below for sample times) and takes longer to use.
The size of Key Modulus range from 360 to 2048. Choosing modulus greater than 512 will take longer time.
Router | 360 bits | 512 bits | 1024 bits | 2048 bits (maximum) |
---|---|---|---|---|
Cisco 2500 | 11 seconds | 20 seconds | 4 minutes, 38 seconds | More than 1 hour |
Cisco 4700 | Less than 1 second | 1 second | 4 seconds | 50 seconds |
Cisco IOS software does not support a modulus greater than 4096 bits. A length of less than 512 bits is normally not recommended. In certain situations, the shorter modulus may not function properly with IKE, so we recommend using a minimum modulus of 2048 bits.
