IBM® Toolbox for Java™ supports using Java Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) for Java Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connections. JSSE is available as an optional package to the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE), versions 1.2 and 1.3. JSSE is integrated into J2SE, version 1.4 and subsequent versions.
For more information about JSSE, see the Sun JSSE Web site 
.
JSSE provides the ability to perform server authentication, enable secure communications, and encrypt data. Using JSSE, you can provide for secure data exchange between clients and servers that run any application protocol (for example, HTTP and FTP) over TCP/IP.
If you have previously used sslight, you should
migrate to JSSE. As of V5R4, JSSE is the only package supported, and sslight
is no longer shipped.
