Legacy algorithms

In some environments, a certain algorithm might be undesirable but it cannot be disabled because of its use in legacy applications. Legacy algorithms might still be supported, but applications should not use them as the security strength of legacy algorithms is usually not strong enough. During TLS security parameters negotiation, legacy algorithms are not negotiated unless there are no other candidates. The security property jdk.tls.legacyAlgorithms specifies which algorithms the SDK considers as legacy algorithms. See the <install_dir>/jre/lib/security/java.security file for the syntax of this security property.
