This book is for Java and Grails developers who would like to secure their applications easily by applying industry’s best practices. I assume a fair knowledge of Java and a basic knowledge of Spring Dependency Injection. Pro Spring Security is a comprehensive, pragmatic reference of functionalities to implement industry-standard authentication and authorization mechanisms for Java applications using the Spring and even Grails frameworks.
Pro Spring Security will be a reference and advanced tutorial that will do the following:
- Guides you through the implementation of the security features for a Java web application by presenting consistent examples built from the ground-up.
- Demonstrates the different authentication and authorization methods to secure enterprise-level applications by using the Spring Security Framework.
- Provides you with a broader look into Spring security by including up-to-date use cases such as building a security layer for RESTful web services and Grails applications.
What you’ll learn
- What the basics of securing a Java application, including core security concepts and the step-by-step configuration to include the Spring Security Framework in your web application
- What tools are available in Spring security to provide login and logout capabilities, with add-ons such as remember-me and password change functionalities.
- What are the types of authentication mechanisms tailored for enterprise-level Java applications, including LDAP, the Central Authentication Service, OpenID and X.509.
- How to dive into each of the application layers to control user access to the different architectural elements of your Java application. You will first apply authorization control to each of the components of the Model-View-Controller tier.
- How to work with Domain Objects and RESTful web services in our authorization queue in order to fully secure our application by using Access Control Lists, along with Object Level and Method Level authorization.
- How to explore the powerful Grails framework and how to use Spring security in the context of a Groovy on Grails application. You will earn about the core security plugin and others such as OpenID, Facebook and Twitter authentication.
