Hi,
I need to use a private key to cipher messages, but I need to do it with
the user's interaction (I need to take the password from the user), and I
can't have a decripted key in memory.
I can only see the "decrypt" method, but when I finish using the key, I
need to deallocate it.
I think on a factory, cloning the original key:
getPrivateKey(password) {
var key = {};
_.extend(key, this._privateKey);
if (!key.decrypt(password))
throw new Error ("Bad password");
return key;
}
But, I don't know if it's the properly way to do it.
Btw, I'd like to know if there is something more efective, for ex: nullify
the content on RAM, or something like this.
Thanks.
