final void init(Key key, AlgorithmParameters param)
Initializes this ExemptionMechanism instance with the specified key and algorithm parameters.
final boolean isCryptoAllowed(Key key)
Returns whether the result blob for this ExemptionMechanism instance has been generated successfully and that the specified key is the same as the one that was used to initialize and generate.
Protected Methods
void finalize()
Override to clear any key state in the instance.
