+/**
+ * This class provides a mechanism for specified named permissions
+ * related to the Java security framework. These permissions have no
+ * associated actions list. They are either granted or no granted.
+ * <p>
+ * The list of valid permission names is:
+ * <p><ul>
+ * <li>getPolicy - Allows retrieval of the system security policy.
+ * <li>setPolicy - Allows the security policy to be changed.
+ * <li>getProperty.&lt;key&gt; - Allows retrieval of the value of the named
+ * property or all properties if &lt;key&gt is a '*'.
+ * <li>setProperty.&lt;key&gt; - Allows changing of the value of the named
+ * property or all properties if &lt;key&gt is a '*'.
+ * <li>insertProvider.&lt;key&gt; - Allows the named provider to be added,
+ * or any provide if the key is '*'.
+ * <li>removeProvider.&lt;key&gt; - Allows the named provider to be removed,
+ * or any provide if the key is '*'.
+ * <li>setSystemScope - Allows the system identity scope to be set.
+ * <li>setIdentityPublicKey - Allows the public key of an Identity to be set.
+ * <li>SetIdentityInfo - Allows the description of an Identity to be set.
+ * <li>addIdentityCertificate - Allows a certificate to be set for the public
+ * key of an identity.
+ * <li>removeIdentityCertificate - Allows a certificate to be removed from the
+ * public key of an identity.
+ * <li>clearProviderProperties.&lt;key%gt; - Allows the properties of the
+ * named provider to be cleared, or all providers if key is '*'.
+ * <li>putProviderProperty.&lt;key%gt; - Allows the properties of the
+ * named provider to be changed, or all providers if key is '*'.
+ * <li>removeProviderProperty.&lt;key%gt; - Allows the properties of the
+ * named provider to be deleted, or all providers if key is '*'.
+ * <li>getSignerPrivateKey - Allows the retrieval of the private key for
+ * a signer.
+ * <li>setSignerKeyPair - Allows the public and private key of a Signer to
+ * be changed.
+ * </ul>
+ * <p>
+ * There is some degree of security risk in granting any of these permissions.
+ * Some of them can completely compromise system security. Please exercise
+ * extreme caution in granting these permissions.
