             Summary: Global access to secure random data
                 Key: WICKET-6730
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-6730
             Project: Wicket
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: wicket-core
    Affects Versions: 9.0.0-M4
            Reporter: Emond Papegaaij


Web applications often need secure random data, for example to generate keys 
for encryption or to generate nonces. In most cases, a simple SecureRandom may 
be enough. But for more demanding applications, it may be necessary to reseed 
the SecureRandom periodically or to use a different algorithm. With several 
SecureRandoms used throughout Wicket, this is becoming very hard (if not 
impossible).

SecuritySettings should contain a central implementation of a 
ISecureRandomSupplier to hold the SecureRandom and to generate random bytes.
