[jira] [Commented] (CRYPTO-161) Add SM4 encryption support

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CRYPTO-161?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17552224#comment-17552224 ] 

Gary D. Gregory commented on CRYPTO-161:
----------------------------------------

From our web page (my emphasis): 

Apache Commons Crypto is a cryptographic library optimized with AES-NI (Advanced Encryption Standard New Instructions). Commons Crypto provides Java APIs at the cipher level and Java stream level. Developers can implement high performance AES encryption/decryption with minimum coding and effort. Please note that Commons Crypto *doesn't implement* the cryptographic algorithm such as AES directly, it *wraps OpenSSL and JCE.*

> SM4 (formerly SMS4)is a block cipher used in the Chinese National Standard for Wireless LAN WAPI (Wired Authentication and Privacy Infrastructure).
> SM4 was a cipher proposed to for the IEEE 802.11i standard, but has so far been rejected by ISO. One of the reasons for the rejection has been opposition to the WAPI fast-track proposal by the IEEE. please see:
