                 Key: DERBY-1986
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1986
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Miscellaneous
    Affects Versions: 10.2.1.6
            Reporter: Jean T. Anderson
         Assigned To: Jean T. Anderson


Derby doesn't implement any crytographic software, but it can take advantage of 
the JCE. So, Derby needs to:

(1) Include a crypto notice in its README and downloads; see 
http://www.apache.org/dev/crypto.html
(2) Provide an RDF file with information for the ASF export page at 
http://www.apache.org/licenses/exports/ ; see 
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/www-legal-discuss/200609.mbox/[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]

Here's seed information for the user notice (please comment and add more):

Apache Derby interfaces with the Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) API to 
provide:
   - Full on-disk encryption of database files
   - Storage and authentication of user passwords stored in the database
   - User and password encryption over a network

Apache Derby does not include any implementation of JCE.
