<p>Apache Commons Crypto is a cryptographic library optimized with AES-NI (Advanced Encryption Standard New Instructions). Commons Crypto provides Java APIs at the cipher level and Java stream level. Developers can implement high performance AES encryption/decryption with minimum coding and effort. Please note that Commons Crypto doesn't implement the cryptographic algorithm such as AES directly, it wraps OpenSSL and JCE. </p> </section> <section> <h2><a name="Features"></a>Features</h2> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Cipher API for low level cryptographic operations.</li> <li>Secure true random number generator.</li> <li>Java stream API for high level stream encryption/decryption. </li> <li>High performance AES encryption/decryption optimized with Intel AES-NI. </li> <li>Portable across various operating systems (currently only Linux/Mac OS/Windows); Apache Commons Crypto loads the library according to your machine environment (using system properties, os.name and os.arch). </li> <li>Simple usage.
