The author takes the time and space needed to describe most basic concepts and contexts. Not to complicated even for non native speakers like me. Each chapter is finished by a separate summary. The last chapter nine is dedicated to Web Service security with Open SSO.
GLASSFISH BOOKS HOW TO
Chapter eight describes how to secure Java EE applications using OpenSSO. Followed by an introduction to OpenSSO (Open Single Sign-On) in chapter seven. Open Directory Services (OpenDS) is introduced in Chapter six. The second half of the book is dedicated to two other products from the former Sun stack. Done with those, you are half through at page 146. Chapter four dives into secure GlassFish environments followed by the fifth chapter caring for a secure GlassFish itself. Another twenty something pages tell you about designing and developing secure Java EE applications.

After a short introduction to the Java EE security model in chapter one it moves on to GlassFish security realms. He is one of the founder members of NetBeans Dream Team and a GlassFish community spotlighted developer.Īltogether this proofs for a good read and that was what I expected. He has authored multiple refcards, published by Dzone, including but not limited to Using XML in Java, Java EE Security and GlassFish v3 refcardz. Masoud has published several articles at and Dzone. His experience is in software architecture, design, and server-side development, high throughput and large scale software systems. He has experience with a variety of technologies (.NET, J2EE, CORBA, and COM+) on diverse platforms (Solaris, Linux, and Windows). He has a software engineering degree and has been working on software development projects since 1998.

That was motivation enough to take the time working through the nearly 300 pages. Beginning from secure GlassFish installations to secure enterprise Java applications (Web, EJB, Clients) including audits and measures. It's title promises to tell you everything about GlassFish security in detail.
