| /** |
| * Provides the classes and interfaces for the security framework. |
| * This includes classes that implement an easily configurable, |
| * fine-grained access control security architecture. |
| * This package also supports |
| * the generation and storage of cryptographic public key pairs, |
| * as well as a number of exportable cryptographic operations |
| * including those for message digest and signature generation. Finally, |
| * this package provides classes that support signed/guarded objects |
| * and secure random number generation. |
| * |
| * Many of the classes provided in this package (the cryptographic |
| * and secure random number generator classes in particular) are |
| * provider-based. The class itself defines a programming interface |
| * to which applications may write. The implementations themselves may |
| * then be written by independent third-party vendors and plugged |
| * in seamlessly as needed. Therefore application developers may |
| * take advantage of any number of provider-based implementations |
| * without having to add or rewrite code. |
