Most of the time, attempting to decrypt a message with an incorrect key will throw an exception. However, there is a small possibility (less than 0.4%) that we decrypt a message with an alternate key, and while the resulting message would not make sense, no exception is thrown. This is because we iterate through the available keys and try to decrypt with each one. When decryption fails, we continue using the next available key. If decryption succeeds using the incorrect key then the data that is decrypted is corrupt.
