0N/AProvides the classes and interfaces for cryptographic operations. The
0N/Acryptographic operations defined in this package include encryption,
0N/Akey generation and key agreement, and Message Authentication Code
0N/A<
p>Support for encryption includes symmetric, asymmetric, block, and
0N/Astream ciphers. This package also supports secure streams and sealed
0N/A<
p>Many of the classes provided in this package are provider-based. The
0N/Aclass itself defines a programming interface to which applications may
0N/Awrite. The implementations themselves may then be written by
0N/Aindependent third-party vendors and plugged in seamlessly as needed.
0N/ATherefore application developers may take advantage of any number of
0N/Aprovider-based implementations without having to add or rewrite code.
