Frank Nimphius talks about JAAS and declarative J2EE security



I found http://www.orablogs.com/fnimphius/archives/000587.html - (broken link) Franks post made yesterday to his weblog discussing Java Authentication and Authorization Services (JAAS) and declarative J2EE security interesting. He is commenting on the subject as JAAS has just been added to the J2EE platform as an official component. There now seem to be two security methods for declaring security. The declarative method is not as fine grained as the JAAS method.

Franks discusses the merits of both and also discusses his research into frameworks and support of the methods in the only other blog i know of about Oracle that has the word "security" in its title.
