Martin Toshev - Security Architecture of the Java Platform

It is common for Java developers to either work on the implementation of a managed Java environment (such as a JavaEE application server) or an application being deployed in such an environment. In any case developers are not always aware of the security implications specific to the JVM. The session provides an overview of the security architecture of the Java platform in terms of its evolution throughout the versions of the JDK up to JDK 9 and beyond. The utilities that fullfill the security portfolio of the JDK will be discussed briefly along with several guidelines in designing and implementing secure applications by following security best practices.
