decrypt_data#

PaymentCryptographyDataPlane.Client.decrypt_data(**kwargs)#

Decrypts ciphertext data to plaintext using symmetric, asymmetric, or DUKPT data encryption key. For more information, see Decrypt data in the Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography User Guide.

You can use an encryption key generated within Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography, or you can import your own encryption key by calling ImportKey. For this operation, the key must have KeyModesOfUse set to Decrypt. In asymmetric decryption, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography decrypts the ciphertext using the private component of the asymmetric encryption key pair. For data encryption outside of Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography, you can export the public component of the asymmetric key pair by calling GetPublicCertificate.

For symmetric and DUKPT decryption, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography supports TDES and AES algorithms. For asymmetric decryption, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography supports RSA. When you use DUKPT, for TDES algorithm, the ciphertext data length must be a multiple of 16 bytes. For AES algorithm, the ciphertext data length must be a multiple of 32 bytes.

For information about valid keys for this operation, see Understanding key attributes and Key types for specific data operations in the Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography User Guide.

Cross-account use: This operation can’t be used across different Amazon Web Services accounts.

Parameters:
  • CipherText (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The ciphertext to decrypt.

  • DecryptionAttributes (dict) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The encryption key type and attributes for ciphertext decryption.

    Note

    This is a Tagged Union structure. Only one of the following top level keys can be set: Asymmetric, Dukpt, Symmetric.

    • Asymmetric (dict) –

      Parameters for plaintext encryption using asymmetric keys.

      • PaddingType (string) –

        The padding to be included with the data.

    • Dukpt (dict) –

      Parameters that are required to encrypt plaintext data using DUKPT.

      • DukptKeyDerivationType (string) –

        The key type encrypted using DUKPT from a Base Derivation Key (BDK) and Key Serial Number (KSN). This must be less than or equal to the strength of the BDK. For example, you can’t use AES_128 as a derivation type for a BDK of AES_128 or TDES_2KEY

      • DukptKeyVariant (string) –

        The type of use of DUKPT, which can be incoming data decryption, outgoing data encryption, or both.

      • InitializationVector (string) –

        An input to cryptographic primitive used to provide the intial state. Typically the InitializationVector must have a random or psuedo-random value, but sometimes it only needs to be unpredictable or unique. If you don’t provide a value, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography generates a random value.

      • KeySerialNumber (string) – [REQUIRED]

        The unique identifier known as Key Serial Number (KSN) that comes from an encrypting device using DUKPT encryption method. The KSN is derived from the encrypting device unique identifier and an internal transaction counter.

      • Mode (string) –

        The block cipher mode of operation. Block ciphers are designed to encrypt a block of data of fixed size, for example, 128 bits. The size of the input block is usually same as the size of the encrypted output block, while the key length can be different. A mode of operation describes how to repeatedly apply a cipher’s single-block operation to securely transform amounts of data larger than a block.

        The default is CBC.

    • Symmetric (dict) –

      Parameters that are required to perform encryption and decryption using symmetric keys.

      • InitializationVector (string) –

        An input to cryptographic primitive used to provide the intial state. The InitializationVector is typically required have a random or psuedo-random value, but sometimes it only needs to be unpredictable or unique. If a value is not provided, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography generates a random value.

      • Mode (string) – [REQUIRED]

        The block cipher mode of operation. Block ciphers are designed to encrypt a block of data of fixed size (for example, 128 bits). The size of the input block is usually same as the size of the encrypted output block, while the key length can be different. A mode of operation describes how to repeatedly apply a cipher’s single-block operation to securely transform amounts of data larger than a block.

      • PaddingType (string) –

        The padding to be included with the data.

  • KeyIdentifier (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The keyARN of the encryption key that Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography uses for ciphertext decryption.

Return type:

dict

Returns:

Response Structure

  • (dict) –

    • KeyArn (string) –

      The keyARN of the encryption key that Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography uses for ciphertext decryption.

    • KeyCheckValue (string) –

      The key check value (KCV) of the encryption key. The KCV is used to check if all parties holding a given key have the same key or to detect that a key has changed. Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography calculates the KCV by using standard algorithms, typically by encrypting 8 or 16 bytes or “00” or “01” and then truncating the result to the first 3 bytes, or 6 hex digits, of the resulting cryptogram.

    • PlainText (string) –

      The decrypted plaintext data.
