Algorithm mapping collection
We can view a list of custom uniform resource identifier (URI) algorithms for digest value calculation, signature, key encryption, and data encryption. The application server maps these algorithms to an implementation of the algorithm factory engine interface. With algorithm mappings, service providers can extend the cryptographic algorithms for XML digital signature and XML encryption.

Algorithm factory engine class
Custom class that implements the factory engine implementation class for the algorithm factory engine.
The implementation class for the factory engine implements the cryptographic functions of the defined uniform resource identifier (URI).
The Algorithm mappings feature is not supported when the Use the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) algorithms option has been selected on the Global security panel of the administrative console. When this option is selected, the New button in the Algorithm mappings panel is not available.
