We have released new versions of our core crypto and SSL/TLS libraries:
IAIK-JCE 5.1
iSaSiLk 4.5
We have released the new IAIK PKCS#11 Provider version 1.4 and the new IAIK PKCS#11 Wrapper version 1.3. These versions now use UTF8 encoding for character array attributes and furthermore include some fixes and enhancement for improved usability.
The IAIK Provider for the Java™ Cryptography Extension (IAIK-JCE) is a set of APIs and implementations of cryptographic functionality, including hash functions, message authentication codes, symmetric, asymmetric, stream, and block encryption, key and certificate management. It supplements the security functionality of the default JDK.
IAIK proudly presents the IAIK ECCelerate™ library for the Java™ platform. IAIK ECCelerate™ was built from scratch and replaces our old IAIK-ECC library. It is based on Java 5/6 technology and offers easy to use elliptic curve cryptography, like ECDSA and ECDH, compliant with current standards. ECCelerate™ is an addon to the IAIK JCE provider (of version 4.0 or higher), which you have to download and install separately.
The JCE CC Core is a Common Criteria evaluated version of most of the cryptographic functionality of the IAIK-JCE toolkit.
This product allows easy integration of smart cards, USB tokens and HSMs into Java™ applications. It provides a simple java.security.KeyStore view of these tokens and makes cryptographic operations of these devices accessible via the JCA/JCE framework. For the application, it is just like working with pure software crypto and file key stores. The library accesses the hardware tokens via the PKCS#11 API, also known as Cryptoki. Hence, it can work with any product which supports PKCS#11.
This is a library for the Java™ platform which makes PKCS#11 (also known as Cryptoki) modules accessible from within Java™. A PKCS#11 module is a software library with a defined API which allows access to cryptographic hardware. It usually comes with hardware security modules (HSM), smart cards and crypto tokens (e.g. USB tokens). Thus, the PKCS#11 Wrapper provides Java™ software access to almost any crypto hardware. For example, a Java™ application can use it to integrate a HSM or a smart card to create digital signatures, to decrypt data or to unwrap keys. We provide this library with an apache-style license.
The IAIK SHA-3 Provider provides performance-optimized Java implementations of the five SHA-3 finalists: BLAKE, Grøstl, JH, Keccak, and Skein.
This is a software library written solely in the Java™ Programming Language. Developers can use and integrate it as a JAR file. It offers a simple API for key management, digital signatures and encryption, supporting CMS, S/MIME and XML. Beside ease of use, this product offers high data throughput. It is especially suitable for server applications, but it is not restricted to this kind of applications.
The Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol has been developed by Netscape Communications Corporation for providing a secure data transfer over the Internet in supporting peer authentication, data encryption and data integrity. The version 3 of the Secure Sockets Layer protocol and its IETF standardized successor TLS (Transport Layer Security) are the most important protocols for encrypted data transfer over the WWW, supported by all well-known browsers, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Netscape and Opera.
IAIK Proxy Tunnel is available for free. The Proxy Tunnel is an application based on IAIK JCE and iSaSiLk that makes it possible to add security features to existing applications and protocols without changing the underlying applications.

The Timestamp API (TSP-API) provides all needed functionality to develop a Timestamp Server or Client.
IAIK XML Security Toolkit (XSECT) implements the upcoming APIs for the Java™ platform
as specified by the Java™ Specification Request JSR#105 and JSR#106 respectively.
IAIK XML Advanced Electronic Signatures (XAdES) add-on for XML Security Toolkit (XSECT)
IAIK-XAdES is the optimal add-on to our XSECT XML signature library enhancing it about useful properties as signing time and signing place and signature processing facilities for long term electronic document archiving. The toolkit enables the creation of advanced electronic signatures that remain valid over a long period of time and are compliant with the EU directive on electronic signatures.
Main Features
Java™ implementation of XML Advanced Electronic Signatures ( XAdES ) ETSI TS 101 903 V1.4.2 (2010-12) Technical Specification
Works on Java™ 2 (JDK 1.2) and later versions.
Cryptographic Provider Independence:
Can be used with any JCA/JCE 1.2 compliant cryptography provider as long as IAIK's JCE is in the classpath.
Provisions for easy integration of smartcards and other hardware security modules
Delivered with the IAIK-JCE provider and IAIK-XSECT by default
The IAIK PAdES toolkit abstracts the creation and validation of signed PDF documents. The structure of the toolkit is highly similar to a typical signature engine in the JCA/JCE framework and allows you to easily create PDF signatures compliant to PAdES-basic and PAdES-BES.
