Java Security Framework

javadude picture javadude · Feb 12, 2009 · Viewed 9.1k times · Source

Security always tends to take the last place in a new project. Or you use a framework like Spring where security is already build-in and can be switched on easily. I try to find an open security framework that can be plugged-in to both Swing and Web applications (and JavaFX?), maybe easy to digest. I looked at plain JAAS, JGuard and JSecurity but its just too complicated to get started. Any recommendations or experience to share ? I am working with NB, Glassfish and MySQL. Thanks Sven

I have just taken a view of this http://shiro.apache.org/

Apache Shiro is a powerful and easy-to-use Java security framework that performs authentication, authorization, cryptography, and session management. With Shiro’s easy-to-understand API, you can quickly and easily secure any application – from the smallest mobile applications to the largest web and enterprise applications.
