Thanks Sebb for suggesting. We will use the following naming convention to avoid shadowing java classes.

Cipher -> CryptoCipher
SecureRandom -> CryptoRandom
CipherInputStream -> CryptoInputStream
CipherOutputStream -> CryptoOutputStream
CTRCipherInputStream -> CTRCryptoInputStream 
CTRCipherOutputStream -> CTRCryptoOutputStream 
...

> The SecureRandom interface also exists  as a class in java.security.
> This makes it awkward to use, for example in JavaSecureRandom the fully qualified name has to be used for the java class.
> Ideally it should be renamed.
