Why java.security.NoSuchProviderException No such provider: BC?

Im not very familiar with the Android sdk, but it seems that the android-sdk comes with the BouncyCastle provider already added to the security.

What you will have to do in the PC environment is just add it manually,

Security.addProvider(new org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider());

if you have access to the policy file, just add an entry like:

security.provider.5=org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider 

Notice the .5 it is equal to a sequential number of the already added providers.

You can add security provider by editing java.security with using following code with creating static block:

static {
    Security.addProvider(new BouncyCastleProvider());
}

If you are using maven project, then you will have to add dependency for BouncyCastleProvider as follows in pom.xml file of your project.

<dependency>
            <groupId>org.bouncycastle</groupId>
            <artifactId>bcprov-jdk15on</artifactId>
            <version>1.47</version>
</dependency>

If you are using normal java project, then you can add download bcprov-jdk15on-147.jar from the link given below and edit your classpath.

you can add security provider by editing java.security by adding security.provider.=org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider

or add a line in your top of your class

Security.addProvider(new BouncyCastleProvider());

you can use below line to specify provider while specifying algorithms

Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES", "SunJCE");

if you are using other provider like Bouncy Castle then

Cipher cipher =  Cipher.getInstance("AES", "BC");
