JceSecretCipher.java - Secret Key Encryption Sample Program

This section provides a tutorial example on how to write a secret key encryption and description program using the javax.crypto.Cipher class.

The following sample program shows you how to do encryption and decryption with a secret key using the javax.crypto.Cipher class:
