/**
 * <p>This Class exposes a handful of methods related to encryption,
 * compression and serialization of the view state.</p>
 * 
 * <ul>
 * <li>ISO-8859-1 is the character set used.</li>
 * <li>GZIP is used for all compression/decompression.</li>
 * <li>Base64 is used for all encoding and decoding.</li>
 * <li>AES is the default encryption algorithm</li>
 * <li>ECB is the default mode</li>
 * <li>PKCS5Padding is the default padding</li>
 * <li>HmacSHA256 is the default MAC algorithm</li>
 * <li>The default algorithm can be overridden using the
 * <i>org.apache.myfaces.ALGORITHM</i> parameter</li>
 * <li>The default mode and padding can be overridden using the
 * <i>org.apache.myfaces.ALGORITHM.PARAMETERS</i> parameter</li>
 * <li>This class has not been tested with modes other than ECB and CBC</li>
 * <li>An initialization vector can be specified via the
 * <i>org.apache.myfaces.ALGORITHM.IV</i> parameter</li>
 * <li>The default MAC algorithm can be overridden using the
 * <i>org.apache.myfaces.MAC_ALGORITHM</i> parameter</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>The secret is interpreted as base 64 encoded.  In other
 * words, if your secret is "76543210", you would put "NzY1NDMyMTA=" in
 * the deployment descriptor.  This is needed so that key values are not
 * limited to just values composed of printable characters.</p>
 *
 * <p>If you are using CBC mode encryption, you <b>must</b> specify an
 * initialization vector.</p>
 *
 * <p>If you are using the AES algorithm and getting a SecurityException
 * complaining about keysize, you most likely need to get the unlimited
 * strength jurisdiction policy files from a place like
 * http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html .</br>
 * Since https://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=JDK-8170157
 * unlimited cryptographic policy is enabled by default.</p>
