Iam going to implement Mobile agent system using the JDK 1,2. Of course my
bigger
interest of using JDK 1,2 is security. I have read
the JDK 1.2 Security Documentation (April 1998), but I have some questions
in
order to create the security model that I want.
First it is supposed that the protection domains are created dinamically in
runtime
after reading the policy file(s).
First Can I modify the permission of a principal in runtime, I mean Can I
modify the
policy file(s).???
Second the set of permission that are granted to a principal are asociated
with the
domain but, maybe I would like to check aditional things which can not be
restricted in the policy file, so How Can I verify this checks??, should I
use the
traticional security manager checkXXX methods to complete my verification
tasks??
Thanks for your help, I hope you can answer as soon as posible..
