libprecis-java - 1.1.0-2 main

PRECIS validates and prepares Unicode strings in a way, so that they can
safely be used in application protocols, e.g. when dealing with usernames and
passwords.
.
For example, if strings are used for authentication and authorization
decisions, the security of an application could be compromised if an entity
providing a given string is connected to the wrong account or online resource
based on different interpretations of the string.
.
PRECIS takes care of such issues.
.
This library supports the following specifications:
.
RFC 8264: PRECIS Framework: Preparation, Enforcement, and Comparison of
Internationalized Strings in Application Protocols
RFC 8265: Preparation, Enforcement, and Comparison of Internationalized
Strings Representing Usernames and Passwords
RFC 8266: Preparation, Enforcement, and Comparison of Internationalized
Strings Representing Nicknames
RFC 5893: Right-to-Left Scripts for Internationalized Domain Names for
Applications (IDNA)
.
PRECIS obsoletes Stringprep (RFC 3454) and this library obsoletes software
like Libidn's Stringprep class.
