Book description:

Cryptography is an essential tool in today?s marketplace, so today?s developers have to know how to write software that includes cryptographic functionality. Although they are usually familiar with the basics of cryptography, developers are not always familiar enough with the available products to select the right API/library and get up and running quickly. Cryptographic Libraries for Developers teaches developers about the available APIs and helps them select the right ones for their projects based on platform, language, and regulatory requirements. The book serves as a nuts-and-bolts guide to writing software using these libraries and provides abundant examples and detailed explanations throughout. The libraries covered include OpenSSL, RSA BSAFE®, the Java Cryptographic Library (JCE), and CAPI. Specific examples covered include simple cryptographic primitives such as sign/verify, encrypt/decrypt (asymmetric and symmetric,) MACs, and Hashing, as well as higher-level primitives such as X.509 digital certificates and secure (SSL) communications. All code and figures from the text are included on the companion CD-ROM.
