We do have a class "Cipher.java" for stream (and block) ciphers.
That class is provided in the Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) 1.2
package. Unfortunately, at this point of time the package binaries
cannot be exported outside the U.S./Canada (due to export restrictions
by the U.S. commerce department), but you can check out the API at
