DecryptRequest¶

DecryptResponse¶

Purpose¶

A DecryptRequest instructs a decryption engine instance to decrypt data as the internal identity corresponding to that engine instance.

A DecryptResponse contains the data decrypted by a decryption engine instance in response to a DecryptRequest.

Type¶

DecryptRequest DecryptResponse

Behaviour¶

Uses the decrypt method on the corresponding Decryptor to decrypt the ciphertext
- Depending on the backend, this may involve I/O to an external device.
Returns the commitment in a DecryptResponse.
