    31 Provides the classes and interfaces for cryptographic operations. The
       
    32 cryptographic operations defined in this package include encryption,
       
    33 key generation and key agreement, and Message Authentication Code
       
    34 (MAC) generation.
       
    35 
       
    36 <p>Support for encryption includes symmetric, asymmetric, block, and
       
    37 stream ciphers. This package also supports secure streams and sealed
       
    38 objects.
       
    39 
       
    40 <p>Many of the classes provided in this package are provider-based.  The
       
    41 class itself defines a programming interface to which applications may
       
    42 write.  The implementations themselves may then be written by
       
    43 independent third-party vendors and plugged in seamlessly as needed.
       
    44 Therefore application developers may take advantage of any number of
       
    45 provider-based implementations without having to add or rewrite code.
