Java Security Analysis

[Ghanshyam]

Java has become one of the most popular
development platforms on the planet.
It is important for:
• Component-based software
• Embedded systems
• Smart cards

Java can be made more secure with the use of
• Advanced cryptography APIs and class libraries
• Language-level security mechanisms
• Built-in functionality that makes it more difficult to write insecure code

Java offers a multi-tiered security structure:

• Restricted access to file systems and the network
• Restricted access to browser internals
• Load-time and runtime checks to verify byte code
• Code signing and assigning a level of capability

Java Security Analysis paper discuss a brief analysis of java security model for programmer.
