Description

In SeededSecureRandom a SecureRandom is generated on a separate thread for performance reasons. However, this call may take a long time to return. See http://bugs.java.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=6521844 for details. The spawned thread must be a daemon thread to prevent it from stalling the shutdown process.
