Google for a good Java security site. Check out the comp.lang.java.security news group ( http://groups.google.com ). You can also take a look at the Sun Java Cryptography Extentions ( http://java.sun.com/products/jce/ ) or Bouncy Castle Crypto API ( http://www.bouncycastle.org ). Good luck and pay attention to key management. You can use the strongest encryption in the world and it won't make a bit of difference if you don't secure your keys!
