public class DualECPoints { private final ECPoint p; private final ECPoint q; private final int securityStrength; private final int cofactor;
Base Constructor.

The cofactor is used to calculate the output block length (maxOutlen) according to

    max_outlen = largest multiple of 8 less than ((field size in bits) - (13 + log2(cofactor))
Params:
  • securityStrength – maximum security strength to be associated with these parameters
  • p – the P point.
  • q – the Q point.
  • cofactor – cofactor associated with the domain parameters for the point generation.
