public class CryptoException

Thrown by classes in this package when a cryptographic operation fails. This is a runtime exception so callers are not forced to handle every operation, but it can be caught explicitly when needed (e.g. a malformed key, an authentication-tag mismatch, an algorithm that is not available on the current platform, etc.).
