This class represents a Kerberos ticket: a credential used to authenticate a Kerberos principal to some Kerberos-enabled network service. A Kerberos-based javax.security.auth.spi.LoginModule implementation will instantiate a KerberosTicket object and store it in the private credential set of the authenticated Subject it creates.
