Module description
The IBM Java JCE (Java Cryptographic Extension) FIPS provider (IBMJCEFIPS) for Multi-platforms is a scalable, multipurpose cryptographic module that supports many FIPS approved cryptographic operations. This gives Java applications access to the FIPS algorithms via the standard JCE framework that is part of all JVM's at the 1.6 level and higher.
Approved algorithms
Other algorithms
Diffie-Hellman (key agreement; key establishment methodology provides 112 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength); RSA (key wrapping; key establishment methodology provides between 112 and 256 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits and greater than 256 bits of encryption strength); MD5
Tested configurations
- Windows XP Professional SP2 using IBM JVM 1.6 (single-user mode)
