Summary: Java Security Services (JSS)
Description:
Network Security Services for Java (JSS) is a Java interface to NSS. JSS supports most of the security standards and encryption technologies supported by NSS. JSS also provides a pure Java interface for ASN.1 types and BER/DER encoding. JSS offers a implementation of Java SSL sockets that uses NSS's SSL/TLS implementation rather than Sun's JSSE implementation. You might want to use JSS's own SSL classes if you want to use some of the capabilities found in NSS's SSL/TLS library but not found in JSSE. NSS is the cryptographic module where all cryptographic operations are performed. JSS essentially provides a Java JNI bridge to NSS C shared libraries. When NSS is put in FIPS mode, JSS ensures FIPS compliance by ensuring that all cryptographic operations are performed by the NSS cryptographic module.
