public class PBEKeySpec extends Object implements KeySpec
A user-chosen password that can be used with password-based encryption (PBE).
The password can be viewed as some kind of raw key material, from which the encryption mechanism that uses it derives a cryptographic key.
Different PBE mechanisms may consume different bits of each password character. For example, the PBE mechanism defined in PKCS #5 looks at only the low order 8 bits of each character, whereas PKCS #12 l
