 The Amazon Corretto Crypto Provider (ACCP) is a collection of high-performance cryptographic implementations exposed via the standard [JCA/JCE](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/security/java-cryptography-architecture-jca-reference-guide.html) interfaces.
 This means that it can be used as a drop in replacement for many different Java applications.
 (Differences from the default OpenJDK implementations are [documented here](./DIFFERENCES.md).)
-Currently algorithms are primarily backed by OpenSSL's implementations (1.1.1m as of ACCP 1.7.0) but this may change in the future.
