Java Security

Name

Class java.security.Security

Synopsis

This class manages the list of providers that have been installed into the virtual machine; this list of providers is consulted to find an appropriate class to provide the implementation of a particular operation when the getInstance() method of an engine class is called. The list of providers initially comes from the $JDKHOME/lib/security/java.security file, and applications may use methods of this class to add and remove providers from that list.
