Hello, this is my first posting in this forum.
I am developing an Android application that uses encryption. I am concerned about the strength of the encryption algorithm (AES), since different countries employ different security policies. 1) Generally: are there versions of Android with different security policy files in place? If so, do these policies vary with the country in which the devices are being sold? Can one replace these files in the Android system? How can one access these files? 2) What happens if an app requests an encryption strength (measured in the size of the key) that is outside a certain countries allowed range? Will the request be reduced (possibly silently) so some legal limit? Will there be a JAVA exception thrown? 3) How can an App test how strong AES is on a given device i.e. determine the maximum key size for AES )? Thank you.
