Architecture, API Design, and Implementation
Inside Java 2 Platform Security Image
2nd Edition
Series: The Java Series Security is an integral part of the Java platform; all Java APIs are built on a solid security model. That model has always been stronger than the security of other platforms, never allowing for the proliferation of a large virus such as "Melissa" or "I Love You." Now improved security and robust performance peacefully coexist. This book provides a detailed look into the central workings of the Java security architecture, including coverage of the many v1.4 enhancements. This book reviews multiple security threats, such as Trojan horses and denial of service attacks, and the strategies used to combat them. St...
