Security Encryption Algorithms

I want to encrypt/decrypt a simple plaint text data in Symbian. I'am unable to find the necessary details. Please help me what to use so that I can use any of the security related algorithms.

You have to implement them yourself; the necessary .lib files, etc., are not part of public SDKs.

If you become a Symbian Platinum Partner, you should get access to a more complete kit & source code to use them.

We are a Platinum Partner of Symbian. We have the sources but are unable to locate the exact file defining the APIs required for the cryptographic operations. I request you to please throw some light regarding the usage of the exact API.

Thanks

If you're a Symbian Platinum partner, is Symbian Ltd not supporting you? I should think that the contract you pay for gives you some level of direct support by Symbian.
