Password Protecting Files

807605May 30 2007 — edited Oct 8 2007
Does anyone know of any good tools to use within a Java app that allow for the program to password protect the file before the user downloads the file? A specific example for our system is a user will click an XLS link that will call a servlet that will create the spreadsheet (using POI) and allow them to Open or Save it. At the time of creation, we need to password protect the file due to security regulations. We would like to find a solution that could apply to different file types, if possible.

Thanks.
