SLOGVERIFY(1)            The slogverify utility manual           SLOGVERIFY(1)

NAME
       slogverify - Verify cryptographically secured logs

SYNOPSIS
       slogverify [arguments]

DESCRIPTION
       The slogverify utility is used to verify the integrity of
       cryptographically secured logs and to decrypt log entries from with a
       secure encrypted destination.

OPTIONS
       slogverify <host key file> <input file> <input MAC file> <output file>
       [bufferSize]
           <host key file> The name of the file containing the initial host
           key (key0).

           <input file> The cryptographically secured log file.

           <input MAC file> The file containing the current message
           authenfication code (MAC) for the input file.

           <output file> The file receiving the plaintext log entries after
           successful verification and decryption.

           [bufferSize] Optional buffer size. The buffer size can be used for
           performance adjustments in case the log file to be verified is very
           large and cannot be processed at once. It is a positive number of
           log entries that can be held in memory during verification. The
           default is 1000.

       -i <previous MAC file file> <previous key file> <input file> <current
       MAC file> <output file> [bufferSize]
           <previous MAC file file> This is the file containing the MAC from
           the previous log file.

           <previous key file> This is the file containing the key from the
           previous log file. In theory, this can be host key key0, but using
           key key0 might generates warnings, as the gap between the first log
           entry ever (log entry 0) and the first log entry of the current log
           file might be large.

           <input file> This is the file containing the current log data.

           <current MAC file> This is the file containing the MAC of the
           current log input file.

           <output file> Decrypted log data will be written into this file.

           [bufferSize] Optional buffer size. The buffer size can be used for
           performance adjustments in case the log file to be verified is very
           large and cannot be processed at once. It is a positive number of
           log entries that can be held in memory during verification. The
           default is 1000.
