This is PKCS#1 format of a private key. Try this code. It doesn’t use Bouncy Castle or other third-party crypto providers. Just java.security and sun.security for DER sequece parsing. Also it supports parsing of a private key in PKCS#8 format (PEM file that has a header “—–BEGIN PRIVATE KEY—–“). import sun.security.util.DerInputStream; import sun.security.util.DerValue; import java.io.File; … Read more
(Expanding more than I feel is appropriate for an edit.) PKCS1, available in several versions as rfcs 2313 2437 3447 and 8017, is primarily about using the RSA algorithm for cryptography including encrypting decrypting signing and verifying. But since crypto is often used between systems or at least programs it is convenient to have a … Read more
