RE: OpenSSL functionality from JAVA

You usually need JSSE to secure your session - i.e. authenticate the message endpoints
and ecnrypt / decrypt the message. JSSE makes use of JCE under the cover. Hence if
you need more information of the cryptographic capabilities of your Java Runtime you 
need
to look into the docs of your JCE provider.

Hope it helps.

Subject: OpenSSL functionality from JAVA



I retake a question posted few weeks ago.
 
Is possible, or is there a way of, or what do I must do to have or make use of all 
OpenSSL functionality from java applications??
 
Exactly I want to make use of cryptographic functions implemented in Openssl (crypto) 
but in Java programs (e.g symmetric cipher, public key cipher, certificates, hash 
messages, etc). Someone told that JSSE could be a good option, but I've read the docs 
and I think that just a few cryptographic functionality is implemented and  what JSSE 
is basically oriented to SSL/TLS connectivity.
 
What do you recommends me ?? Does someone did or is doing something similar to this 
before or now??
 
Tnaks in advance

The latest 1.4 JDKs include JSSE by default. Bouncy Castle, as someone 
has mentioned already, extends
cryptography even further from my experience.

Everything depends upon what you are trying to accomplish. Java does 
implement all of the algorithms
you are looking for in the default JCE package and various other 
packages. But Java does not have
a front-end like interface like OpenSSL does.

What are you trying to accomplish and why java?
Thanks,

From my experience as a user of JSSE, I totally 
disagree with that.
