However, I hope my transgression will be over- looked, given that the software I am about to mention, is *free and open-source* (under the LGPL). StrongAuth, Inc., the company I am affiliated with, has just announced the availability of StrongKey(tm), a software product that can be used to centrally manage symmetric keys for an enterprise. Details about the software - as well as downloads - are available at http://www.strongkey.org. The software is designed to address the problem of managing symmetric encryption keys across different operating systems, databases, applications and devices, while providing for centralized policy- definition, strong access controls and very strong protections of the data (given that these comprise encryptions keys). It is a building- block of, what we call, an Enterprise Key Management Infrastructure (EKMI). The reason for my posting this message in this forum is that StrongKey is written in 100% Java, and specifically uses XMLSignatures for maintaining the integrity of objects, and we believe that information may be of interest to some. I thank you for your indulgence, and apologize in advance to anyone who may be offended by this posting - but I took the chance in the hope that the inforamtion may be useful to some people.
