RSA BSAFE SSL-J 6.2.6 Installation Guide

For FIPS 140-2 Level 2 Roles, Authentication and Services compliance, the

security properties listed in the following table must be added.

9. SSL-J uses

CTRDRBG128 as the default random algorithm where no other random

algorithm is specified.

Use the security property

com.rsa.crypto.default.random to change this

as required. The following are valid values for this security property:

Note: Services created by JCE providers do not follow the non-Android

priority order. In a non-Android system, a

SecureRandom created with

no defined algorithm would normally use the algorithm with the highest

priority set in the security properties. On Android, a different algorithm

could be used each time. RSA recommends that on Android an algorithm

is always specified when creating a

SecureRandom or when using any

JCE component that has an option to use a default SecureRandom.

The installation of

SSL-J is complete. For information on how to run the sample code,

see Build an Application to Run the SSL-J Samples.

Note: For details about how to run ProGuard with SSL-J jar files, see the

section Introduction to SSL-J > ProGuard and SSL-J Jar Files in the

RSA BSAFE SSL-J Developers Guide.
