             Summary: openSslCipher support engine
                 Key: CRYPTO-162
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CRYPTO-162
             Project: Commons Crypto
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Cipher
            Reporter: wenweijian


The engine is the hardware or software implementation used for performing 
cryptographic operations.

 

Assume we have a hardware device with a super fast implementation of AES. Now 
when we use AES encryption we can set the engine to that hardware device 
(instead of {{{}NULL{}}}), which means that the operations are now computed by 
the hardware device instead of the default OpenSSL software layer.
