Full Description Cryptography, the science of secret writing, is the biggest, baddest security tool in the application programmer's arsenal.
Cryptography provides three services that are crucial in secure programming.
This book covers cryptographic programming in Java. This book covers the JCA and the JCE from top to bottom, describing the use of the cryptographic classes as well as their innards. The book is designed for moderately experienced Java programmers who want to learn how to build cryptography into their applications. No prior knowledge of cryptography is assumed. The book is peppered with useful examples, ranging from simple demonstrations in the first chapter to full-blown applications in later chapters.
