/**
 * Security context. Provides additional information necessary for processing
 * a JOSE object.
 *
 * Example context information:
 *
 * 

 *     Identifier of the message producer (e.g. OpenID Connect issuer) to
 *         retrieve its public key to verify the JWS signature.
 *     
Indicator whether the message was received over a secure channel
 *         (e.g. TLS/SSL) which is essential for processing unsecured (plain)
 *         JOSE objects.
