Package org.cumulus4j.crypto Description

API providing a unified way to use various cryptography algorithms.

For example, there is the Cipher which provides a generic API for symmetric and asymmetric encryption (& decryption) or there is the MACCalculator for calculating message authentication codes.

This API allows for the simple configuration of the algorithms used by your application as the CryptoRegistry binds an algorithm name (i.e. a String) to an implementation of one of the API's interfaces.
