The SP uses this information to provide authorization to the user.
This is the ninth entry in blog series on using Java Cryptography securely. We started off by looking at the basics of Java Cryptography Architecture, assembling one crypto primitive after other in posts on Cryptographically Secure Random Number Generator, symmetric & asymmetric encryption/decryption & hashes.
