Class SecureRequestCredentials

java.lang.Object

org.jasig.portlet.courses.dao.xml.SecureRequestCredentials

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public final class SecureRequestCredentials
extends Object
implements Serializable

Holds a username and password in a secure manner. The intent is not to protect from in memory attacks as calling getPassword() returns the plain-text password. The intent is to prevent accidental exposure via serialization, toString or other similar approach.
Decryption will also only work within the same JVM as the object was created as the password used is random and scoped to the life of this class.
