10139N/A
10139N/AProvides the classes and interfaces for the security framework.
11419N/AThis includes classes that implement an easily configurable,
11437N/Afine-grained access control security architecture.
11962N/AThis package also supports
11437N/Athe generation and storage of cryptographic public key pairs,
11437N/Aas well as a number of exportable cryptographic operations
10139N/Aincluding those for message digest and signature generation. Finally,
10139N/Athis package provides classes that support signed/guarded objects
10139N/Aand secure random number generation.
10139N/A
10139N/AMany of the classes provided in this package (the cryptographic
10139N/Aand secure random number generator classes in particular) are
10803N/Aprovider-based. The class itself defines a programming interface
10139N/Ato which applications may write. The implementations themselves may
10139N/Athen be written by independent third-party vendors and plugged
10139N/Ain seamlessly as needed. Therefore application developers may
10139N/Atake advantage of any number of provider-based implementations
10139N/Awithout having to add or rewrite code.
