    32 Provides the classes and interfaces for the security framework.
       
    33 This includes classes that implement an easily configurable,
       
    34 fine-grained access control security architecture.
       
    35 This package also supports
       
    36 the generation and storage of cryptographic public key pairs,
       
    37 as well as a number of exportable cryptographic operations
       
    38 including those for message digest and signature generation.  Finally,
       
    39 this package provides classes that support signed/guarded objects
       
    40 and secure random number generation.
       
    41 
       
    42 Many of the classes provided in this package (the cryptographic
       
    43 and secure random number generator classes in particular) are
       
    44 provider-based.  The class itself defines a programming interface
       
    45 to which applications may write.  The implementations themselves may
       
    46 then be written by independent third-party vendors and plugged
       
    47 in seamlessly as needed.  Therefore application developers may
       
    48 take advantage of any number of provider-based implementations
       
    49 without having to add or rewrite code.
