| * A private key. |
| * The purpose of this interface is to group (and provide type safety |
| * for) all private key interfaces. |
| * <p> |
| * Note: The specialized private key interfaces extend this interface. |
| * See, for example, the {@code DSAPrivateKey} interface in |
| * {@link java.security.interfaces}. |
| * <p> |
| * Implementations should override the default {@code destroy} and |
| * {@code isDestroyed} methods from the |
| * {@link javax.security.auth.Destroyable} interface to enable |
| * sensitive key information to be destroyed, cleared, or in the case |
| * where such information is immutable, unreferenced. |
| * Finally, since {@code PrivateKey} is {@code Serializable}, implementations |
| * should also override |
| * {@link java.io.ObjectOutputStream#writeObject(java.lang.Object)} |
| * to prevent keys that have been destroyed from being serialized. |
