/**
* 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.
