JCE is a separate, standalone package. JCE 1.2 does depend on JDK 1.2.
JCE is 100% Java, and doesn't use RSA's library BSAFE. It includes
implementations for DES and Triple DES and Diffie-Hellman, but it does
not include a Java implementation of the RSA algorithm. We don't have
the patent rights to implement the RSA algorithm in Java.
There is no charge for JCE. It may only be downloaded and used within the
US and Canada.
