Java(TM) Cryptography Extension Policy Files

for the Java(TM) Platform, Standard Edition Runtime Environment

The JCE architecture allows flexible cryptographic strength to be
|
|
configured via the jurisdiction policy files contained within these
|
|
directories.
|
|
|
|
The default JCE policy files bundled in this Java Runtime Environment
|
|
allow for "unlimited" cryptographic strengths. For convenience,
|
|
this build also contains the historic "limited" strength policy files
|
|
which contain restrictions on cryptographic strengths, but they must be
|
|
specifically activated by updating the "crypto.policy" Security property
|
|
(e.g. <java-home>/conf/security/java.security) to point to the appropriate
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
Each subdirectory contains a complete policy configuration, and additional
|
|
subdirectories can be added/removed to reflect local regulations.

JCE for Java SE has been through the U.S. export review process. The JCE
|
|
framework, along with the various JCE providers that come standard with it
|
|
(SunJCE, SunEC, SunPKCS11, SunMSCAPI, etc), is exportable from the
|
|
United States.
|
|
|
|
You are advised to consult your export/import control counsel or attorney
|
|
to determine the exact requirements of your location, and what policy
|
|
settings should be used.

Please see The Java(TM) Cryptography Architecture (JCA) Reference
|
|
Guide and the java.security file for more information.
