| Provides classes and interfaces for key specifications and algorithm |
| parameter specifications. |
| |
| <p>A key specification is a transparent representation of the key |
| material that constitutes a key. A key may be specified in an |
| algorithm-specific way, or in an algorithm-independent encoding format |
| (such as ASN.1). This package contains key specifications for |
| Diffie-Hellman public and private keys, as well as key specifications for DES, |
| Triple DES, and PBE secret keys. |
| |
| <p>An algorithm parameter specification is a transparent representation |
| of the sets of parameters used with an algorithm. This package contains |
| algorithm parameter specifications for parameters used with the |
| Diffie-Hellman, DES, Triple DES, PBE, RC2 and RC5 algorithms. |
