Oracle has launched Jipher, a Java Cryptographic Service Provider that integrates a FIPS 140-2 validated OpenSSL cryptographic module for Java developers. This allows Java applications to comply with FIPS standards, which is essential for enterprises and government agencies operating in constrained environments. Previously, developers faced challenges using non-FIPS approved third-party components, leading to performance and support issues. Jipher simplifies this process, being packaged as a JAR file compatible with Oracle JDK versions 17 and 21, enhancing security without complicating deployment practices.
Oracle Jipher is a Java Cryptographic Service Provider that enables deployments of Java applications in FIPS 140-regulated environments, utilizing an OpenSSL 3.x FIPS module.
FIPS 140 standards define the security requirements for cryptographic modules, and with Jipher, Java applications can now seamlessly meet these requirements without third-party solutions.
