"For a long time, there has been a need for a practical, down-to-earth developers book for the Java Cryptography Extension. I am very happy to see there is now a book that can answer many of the technical questions that developers, managers, and researchers have about such a critical topic. I am sure that this book will contribute greatly to the success of securing Java applications and deployments for e-business." --Anthony Nadalin, Java Security Lead Architect, IBM "I think it's worth having a copy of this book in the company library." - Dr Dobb's Journal, November 2004 "No other resource presents so concisely or effectively the exact material needed to begin utilizing the JCE." Stefan Meyer (Berlin) Zentralblatt MATH 1060, November 2005
