Java Unlimited Strength Policy is no longer a thing and enabled by default. See

JDK-8170157 Enable unlimited cryptographic policy by default in Oracle JDK builds
Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files Download

The unlimited policy files are required only for JDK 8, 7, and 6 updates earlier than 8u161, 7u171, and 6u181. On those versions and later, the stronger cryptographic algorithms are available by default.

The current versions of JDK 8, 7, and 6 are 8u302, 7u312, and 6u119. It was always enabled on JDK 11 and 17.
