The security providers have vestiges of Sun in the provider names (SUN, 
SunPKCS11, SunJSSE ..) but these are documented and I don't think can be 
changed (although it not recommended to select services from specific 
providers). To my knowledge, the names of the shared libraries are not 
something that anyone should depend on, they are purely an 
implementation detail. I'm sure someone in the security area with jump 
to review any proposed changes here but I wouldn't expect it to cause 
problems.
