Cipher implementations from different providers can be integrated using 12 the SPI (Service Provider Interface) abstract classes. With class {@link javax.crypto.SealedObject} a programmer can secure an object by 13 encrypting it with a cipher. 14 </p><p> 15 Authentication may be based on MAC (Message Authentication Code) such as HMAC (Hash MAC, i.e. with a SHA-1 hash function). 16 </p> 17 </body> 18 </html> 19
