Security - Deployment

The Nexaweb application is a standard J2EE application and therefore all of the security mechanisms provided by the J2EE framework are available to it. Just like any other Web application, a Nexaweb application consists of components that can be deployed into different containers. Each container provides security for the components that it manages.  As part of configuring security for a Nexaweb application you will need to know:

1. How to define realms, users, groups and roles.
2. Protect application resources.
3. Configure SSL.
4. Set up login authentication.
5. Additional topics depending on your application's security requirements.

For more information on any of the mentioned topics please refer to the online tutorial available at:

In order to function properly, Nexaweb applications require a certain set of permissions specified in the java.policy file of your application server.
