SecurityUtils
This is a utility package that combines using 'bcrypt' 'crypto-js', 'jsonwebtoken' and 'object-hash' for storing information in a data base either by hash or encryption. It also supports the rotation of encryption to maintain compatibility when performing security key rotation.
4.0 >= hash had a major redesign. For previous version, check npm version and refer to the readme for each version.
Hash functions
There is a hash and compareHash functions which can be used for hash and salting passwords. This is done using bcrypt and object-has.
The expectation is to include a "pepperArray" which is an array of string. The dataTypes is then used to help select 3 unique strings from the array. Then those string are hashed together. A single character is then inserted into the hash string. The result is then hashed and pepper again (with different string generated from the pepper array) before finally salting the final value.
import {hashData, compareHash} from "@jabz/security-utils";
const inputData: any = {/* any data you want */}
const dataType: number = 0 // used to provide variation
const pepperString: string[] = [/* treat as api keys*/] // used for generating pepper
const hashData:string = hashData(inputData, dataType: number, pepperString: string[]) // returns a hash string
const compareHash = compareHash(hashData, dataType: number, hashString: string, pepperString: string[]) //returns boolean if match
JWT Manager
This is a class to help manage the generation and validation of JWTs. Instead of using jwtAPI keys for signing the token, this class will take up to 3 string from the kwt keys provided and hash a new one at run time.
import {JWTManager, JWTManagerConfig} from "@jabz/security-utils";
const keys = ()=>{/* some implementation to get the api keys*/};
const config : JWTManagerConfig = {
getJWTKey: () => string[];
issuer: string;
JWTConfig?: JWTConfig | undefined;
accessTokenValidTime?: number
refreshTokenValidTime?: number
};
const jwtManager = new JWTManager(config);
// the following are provided
jwtManager.generateJWT(data: any) // values in the config are automatically injected. the data parameter can be used to override and inject any data field needed
jwtManager.generateAccessToken(userID: string, options?: any, audience?: string) // used for making access token, options is used for injecting properties and overriding
jwtManager.generateRefreshToken(userID: string, options?: any, audience?: string) // used for making refresh token, options is used for injecting properties and overriding
jwtManager.verifyJWT (jwtString: string, audience?: string, subject?: string) // validates whether or not the jwt is authentic. Audience and Subject are optional
jwtManager.decodeJWT(jwtString: string) // returns the data within a jwt
jwtManager.deleteNoneUniqueJWTProperties({/*contents of a jwt*/} :any) // this is a utility function used to remove ALL "STANDARD" properties within a JWT leaving only custom properties.
Encryption Manager
With this class a "single encryption step" goes as follows:
- pull 3
- encrypt the data once
- add a pepper
- encrypt the data again
This library support a "single" encryption, N encryption and encryption fill objects.
import {EncryptionManager} from "@jabz/security-utils";
const getKeys: ()string[] => [/*your api keys*/] // used to get encryption keys
const encryptManager = new EncryptionManager(getKeys)
// the following are provided
// used as a base wrapper around crypto-js for handling encryption. This is not intended to be used directly
// encryptVar - used for variation when encryption, eg userID, specific field ...., this helps make two closely related data have completely different encryption keys
encryptManager.singleEncryption(inputData: string, keyType: string | number, option?: string | number | undefined)
encryptManager.singleDecrypt(cipherText: string, keyType: string | number, option?: string | number | undefined)
// this is the primary function intended to be used for encryption. This implements the described process above
encryptManager.encryptText(inputData: string, keyType: string | number, pepperString: string[], option?: string | undefined)
encryptManager.decryptData(cipherText: string, keyType: string | number, pepperString: string[], option?: string | undefined)
// this applies the same encryption as above but does it so "N" times, the round number is the amount of times it will encrypt the data. The default is 2.
encryptManager.NEncryption(inputData: string, keyType: string | number, option?: string | number | undefined, round?: number)
encryptManager.NDecryption(cipherText: string, keyType: string | number, option?: string | number | undefined, round?: number)
// this can be used to encrypt entire objects. This can only take objects that are a single layer of just primitives (booleans, numbers, strings). NaN is converted to null.
encryptManager.encryptObjectData(data: acceptedObjectEncryption, keyType: string | number, pepperString: string[], optString?: string | number | undefined)
encryptManager.decryptObject(encryptedObject: acceptedObjectEncryption, keyType: string | number, pepperString: string[], optString?: string | number | undefined)
