Which RSA algorithm are you looking for? BTW Sun has 4 JCE providers: SUN, SunJCE, SunRsaSign, SunJSSE. Last two has the following RSA algorithms: KeyPairGenerator.RSA
Signature.MD2withRSA
Signature.MD5withRSA
Signature.SHA1withRSA

Hello euxx!
Thank you for taking time to reply on my query.
I am referring to the SunJCE Provider, which is already included in the latest Java 2 SDK, v 1.4 release.
I am looking for the RSA Algorithm for encryption/decryption of data. Because I believe that it would be very helpful when the SunJCE would include the implementation of that algorithm since the provider had been pre-installed in the latest Java 2 SDK.
Do you have any idea?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ron

Those 4 providers are from JDK 1.4

I believe they still don't want to have any issues with US export restrictions, especially with that little case when someone need to use RSA encryption. So, they let you to use any 3rd part JCE provider. And there is such a good one for free. Look at the BouncyCastle.
