摘要:
A security policy process which provides role-based permissions for hierarchically organized system resources such as domains, clusters, application servers, and resources, as well as topic structures for messaging services. Groups of permissions are assigned to roles, and each user is assigned a role and a level of access within the hierarchy of system resources or topics. Forward or reverse inheritance is applied to each user level-role assignment such that each user is allowed all permissions for ancestors to the assigned level or descendants to the assigned level. This allows simplified security policy definition and maintenance of user permissions as each user's permission list must only be configured and managed at one hierarchical level with one role.
摘要:
Objects on application servers may be defined into classes which receive different levels of security protection, such as definition of user objects and administrative objects. Domain-wide security may be enforced on administrative objects, which user object security may be configured separately for each application server in a domain. In a CORBA architecture, IOR's for shared objects which are to be secured on a domain-wide basis, such as administrative objects, are provided with tagged components during IOR creation and exporting to a name server. Later, when the IOR is used by a client, the client invokes necessary security measures such as authentication, authorization and transport protection according to the tagged components.
摘要:
Objects on application servers are distributed to one or more application servers; a user is allowed to declare in a list which objects residing on each application server are to be protected; the list is read by an interceptor; responsive to exportation of a Common Object Request Broker Architecture (“CORBA”) compliant Interoperable Object Reference (“IOR”) for a listed object, the interceptor associates one or more application server security flags with interfaces to the listed objects by tagging components of the IOR with one or more security flags; and one or more security operations are performed by an application server according to the security flags tagged to the IOR when a client accesses an application server-stored object, the security operations including an operation besides establishing secure communications between the client process and the server-stored object.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for optimizing references to objects in a distributed data processing system. A method is invoked in a client process by client application on a target object. In response to determining that the target object is on a remote process reference, a smart proxy determines whether the message can be processed within the client process. In response to determining that the message can be processed in the client process, the message is processed locally. Otherwise the message is sent to the target object for processing.
摘要:
Testing J2EE applications, wherein J2EE applications comprise modules, the testing including identifying (204), from an application deployment descriptor, modules comprised within the J2EE application; identifying, from an identified module, at least one QOS element; and identifying, from the identified QOS element, a software resource to be tested. Typical embodiments further including generating Java test code; identifying, for the software resource to be tested, a user identification and a user password for a user that is a member of a role intended to protect the software resource; and testing the software resource to be tested by use of the Java test code, including passing as parameters to the Java test code at run time the user identification and user password.
