Installing IAIK-JCE

IAIK-JCE is a third-party Java Cryptography library that may be used as an alternative to the Java Cryptography Extension functions included in the Oracle/Sun JRE. If your organization requires it, you can choose to use IAIK-JCE libraries while storing/transmitting sensitive information (for example, passwords) in P6 EPPM.

To allow the P6 EPPM installer to recognize and install IAIK-JCE, you must modify your existing java.security settings and copy the iaik_jce.jar file to the correct location in <Java_Home>.

To prepare IAIK-JCE for installation:

Navigate to the following URL:
http://jce.iaik.tugraz.at/sic/Products/Core-Crypto-Toolkits/JCA_JCE
Download and extract iaik_jce.zip locally. See Tested Configurations for the supported versions of IAIK-JCE.
Navigate to the lib-signed folder and then copy iaik_jce.jar to <Java_Home>/jre/lib/ext.
Navigate to <Java_Home>/jre/lib/security and then add the following to java.security.
security.provider.11=iaik.security.provider.IAIK

Note If the number '11' is being used by another entry, use the next available number.
Save and close the file.
