Interface FallbackEncryptor

All Superinterfaces:

Encryptor

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultFallbackEncryptor

public interface FallbackEncryptor
extends Encryptor

A fallback encryptor provides a fallback mechanism for decryption, first using the default encryption keys and, if they fail (perhaps because they have been changed), falling back to a backup set of keys. Note that encryption will be performed only using the default encryption keys.

Since:

4.0
