While the JCE (Java Cryptography Extension) provider built into the JDK 1.4 (SunJCE provider) doesn't support a tremendous amount of ciphers, I've found another provider that does. Check out Cryptix JCE at: http://cryptix.org/products/jce/index.html This is a pure Java implementation of a JCE provider that supports lots more ciphers, including AES, all under a free license. The catch: it's "early access" quality. If you're interested in seeing how JCE is used, I've attached a tiny example program I used to encrypt a short string with AES. I had to beat my head against the wall for quite a while to make this work before I figured out that instead of asking for the "AES" algorithm I should ask for the "Rijndael" algorithm. -- Joel |
