          Description
| Interface Summary | |
|---|---|
| Key | The Key interface is the top-level interface for all keys. | 
| PublicKey | A public key. | 
| Class Summary | |
|---|---|
| KeyFactory | Key factories are used to convert key specifications
 (transparent representations of the underlying key material) 
 into keys (opaque cryptographic keys of type Key). | 
| MessageDigest | This MessageDigest class provides applications the functionality of a message digest algorithm, such as MD5 or SHA. | 
| Signature | This Signatureclass is used to provide applications 
 the functionality
 of a digital signature algorithm. | 
| Exception Summary | |
|---|---|
| DigestException | This is the generic Message Digest exception. | 
| GeneralSecurityException | The GeneralSecurityException class is a generic 
 security exception class that provides type safety for all the 
 security-related exception classes that extend from it. | 
| InvalidAlgorithmParameterException | This is the exception for invalid or inappropriate algorithm parameters. | 
| InvalidKeyException | This is the exception for invalid Keys (invalid encoding, wrong length, uninitialized, etc). | 
| KeyException | This is the basic key exception. | 
| NoSuchAlgorithmException | This exception is thrown when a particular cryptographic algorithm is requested but is not available in the environment. | 
| SignatureException | This is the generic Signature exception. | 
Provides the classes and interfaces for the security framework. This package 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.
