Abstract :
Security of Java-based applications is crucial to many businesses today. In this paper, we propose an approach to completely automate the generation of a security architecture inside of a target Java application where advanced security policies can be enforced. Our approach combines the use of Aspect-Oriented Programming with the Policy Enforcement Point (PEP) - Policy Decision Point (PDP) paradigm and allows the runtime update of policies.
