Praise for Core Security Patterns

Praise for Core Security Patterns

"Java provides the application developer with essential security mechanisms and support in avoiding critical security bugs common in other languages. A language, however, can only go so far. The developer must understand the security requirements of the application and how to use the features Java provides in order to meet those requirements. Core Security Patterns addresses both aspects of security and will be a guide to developers everywhere in creating more secure applications."

Whitfield Diffie, inventor of Public-Key Cryptography

"A comprehensive book on Security Patterns, which are critical for secure programming."

Li Gong, former Chief Java Security Architect, Sun Microsystems, and coauthor of Inside Java 2 Platform Security

"As developers of existing applications, or future innovators that will drive the next generation of highly distributed applications, the patterns and best practices outlined in this book will be an important asset to your development efforts."

Joe Uniejewski, Chief Technology Officer and Senior Vice President, RSA Security, Inc.

"This book makes an important case for taking a proactive approach to security rather than relying on the reactive security approach common in the software industry."

Judy Lin, Executive Vice President, VeriSign, Inc.

"Core Security Patterns provides a comprehensive patterns-driven approach and methodology for effectively incorporating security into your applications. I recommend that every application developer keep a copy of this indispensable security reference by their side."

Bill Hamilton, author of ADO.NET Cookbook, ADO.NET in a Nutshell, and NUnit Pocket Reference

"As a trusted advisor, this book will serve as a Java developer's security handbook, providing applied patterns and design strategies for securing Java applications."
