 * @brief A class for storing arbitrary data in secure (non-swappable) memory,

 * @warning Non-swappable memory might be unavailable, in which case this falls
 *	    back to swappable memory, but still wipes the data when it gets
 *	    deallocated. Check the @ref allowsSwappableMemory property to see
 *	    whether a particular OFSecureData might be allocated in swappable
 *	    memory.
