Java Applet Security

Abstract

Java's early growth was spurred by code downloadable over a network, better known as APPLETS. Applet security has evolved with the growth of Java, and today is a source of frequent confusion due to the variety of Java versions, commercially available browsers, and plug-ins. Applets are automatically (an applet may not give any visual signal of its existence or execution) downloaded across the network and run on the host machine when a user accesses in a browser a web page containing applet. A user coming across malicious applets is within the realms of possibility. The Java Sandbox model provides you an environment, where you could welcome any code from any source. But when the code from an untrusted source runs Sandbox restricts the code from taking any actions that could possibly harm your system. It terms of applets the restrictions means that applets will be unable to determine information about each other; each applet is given its own memory space to run. Java byte code modification technique is used to insert extra run-time test into java applets. This technique is used to restrict applet behavior or, potentially, insert code appropriate to profiling and other monitoring efforts.
