Chapter 27: Securing Client-Side Components

  

Introduction

J2EE applications are deployed in servers, and each J2EE component is installed in different containers. A J2EE server is the runtime portion of a J2EE product and provides EJB and Web containers. The EJB container manages the life cycle of Enterprise Beans, and the Web container manages the execution of JSP pages and Servlets. In addition, there are two more containers: the application client container and the applet container. The application client container runs on the client and manages the execution of application client components. Finally, the applet container manages the execution of applets and consists of the Web browser and a Java plug-in running on the client. Figure 27-1 illustrates these relationships.

This chapter covers security from application, applet, and JSP and Servlets perspectives (EJBs are covered in Chapter 28). In addition, it briefly covers JNDI and presents an example to illustrate these concepts.
