J2EE Security for Architects
Discuss the security implications of common J2EE architectures. This could be discussed in terms of: Authentication, Authorisation, Data Validation, Cross Site Scripting protection. Other architecture concerns such as scalability, performance and maintainability can also be mentioned, but the focus on security should not be lost.
Any other security concerns that should be addressed during the design phase should also be mentioned here.
Design considerations
- Architectural considerations (0%, TD)
- EJB Middle tier (0%, TD)
- Web Services Middle tier (0%, TD)
- Spring Middle tier (0%, TD)
J2EE Security for Developers
Noteworthy Frameworks
Discuss important and relevant Java security frameworks that would be useful to architects. The information should be at a suitably high level, for example, by discussing the advantages and features as well as the associated costs (direct and indirect) of using the frameworks.
