Description
The java.security.{Certificate, Identity, IdentityScope, Signer} classes have been deprecated since 1.2 and superseded by java.security.cert, java.security.KeyStore and related classes since 1.2. It is no longer necessary to retain these classes and they should be removed in a future release. 
Comments
These APIs were originally marked for removal in JDK 9 but the change was backed out before 9 was released because some external projects needed more time to remove the dependencies. Marking them for removal is being re-targeted to JDK 10.
