 * whose key material resides in inaccessible, protected storage (such
 * as in a hardware device).
 *
 * <P>For more developer information on how to use these interfaces,
 * including information on how to design <code>Key</code> classes for
 * hardware devices, please refer to the cryptographic provider
 * developer guide:
