Correct - this type of event period (beginChunk) will fire once when the JFR recording is begun. It should capture Security Properties (if java.security.Security is loaded) for any recording, no matter when it might begin or end. Similar to how InitialSystemProperty is captured (but that's implemented at native/VM level)
