Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) on Android/Java

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2914151

Question

Has anyone used DTLS on Android or is there an open source Java implementation that supports DTLS?

What are my other options for securing UDP traffic on Android?

Was it helpful?

Solution

DTLS support is not available in pure Java yet. We ended up using OpenSSL through JNI. I doubt you will find anything on Android.

You should use TLS (which means you have to use TCP).

OTHER TIPS

wolfSSL recently created an open source JNI wrapper around the lightweight SSL/TLS library, CyaSSL. The wrapper supports both DTLS 1.0 and DTLS 1.2 - in addition to current SSL/TLS standards up to TLS 1.2.

Both CyaSSL and the JNI wrapper are dual licensed under the GPLv2 as well as a commercial license to accomodate both personal/hobby and commercial project needs.

You can find our JNI wrapper here: http://yassl.com/yaSSL/Products-wolfssljni.html
