KerberosKey

Synopsis

This class is a javax.crypto.SecretKey implementation that represents the secret key of a Kerberos principal. A Kerberos-based javax.security.auth.spi.LoginModule implementation instantiates a KerberosKey object and stores it in the private credential set of the authenticated Subject it creates.
