Package org.identityconnectors.common.security Description

Provides facility to secure String and ByteArray, so it is securely stored in a memory (or transported to Connector Server). Connector Developer should use org.identityconnectors.common.security.GuardedString type for every attribute which holds sensitive data. This way the sensitive value is not stored in memory (and is not logged as plain text).
