Java credential storage framework

Is there a freely available credential storage framework for Java?

I have a desktop application that needs to store the users' credentials to external systems.

I'm just wondering if someone already has a framework to make this easy.

There is the Credential Store Framework (CSF) with Java API provided by Oracle.
