 <body bgcolor="white">

 Provides the classes and interfaces for cryptographic operations. The
 cryptographic operations defined in this package include encryption,
 key generation and key agreement, and Message Authentication Code
 (MAC) generation.

 <p>Support for encryption includes symmetric, asymmetric, block, and
 stream ciphers. This package also supports secure streams and sealed
 objects.

 <p>Many of the classes provided in this package are provider-based.  The
 class itself defines a programming interface to which applications may
 write.  The implementations themselves may then be written by
 independent third-party vendors and plugged in seamlessly as needed.
 Therefore application developers may take advantage of any number of
 provider-based implementations without having to add or rewrite code.
