Summary : Refer to this definitive and authoritative book to understand the Jakarta EE Security Spec, with Jakarta Authentication & Authorization as its underlying official foundation. Jakarta EE Security implementations are discussed, such as Soteria and Open Liberty, along with the build-in modules and Jakarta EE Security third-party modules, such as Payara Yubikey & OIDC, and OmniFaces JWT-Auth. The book discusses Jakarta EE Security in relation to SE underpinnings and provides a detailed explanation of how client-cert authentication over HTTPS takes place, how certifications work, and how LDAP-like names are mapped to caller/user names. General (web) security best practices are presented, such as not storing passwords in plaintext, using HTTPS, sanitizing inputs to DB queries, encoding output, and explanations of various (web) attacks and common vulnerabilities are included. Practical examples of securing applications discuss common needs such as letting users explicitly log in, sign up, verify email safely, explicitly log in to access protected pages, and go direct to the log in page. Common issues are covered such as abandoning an authentication dialog halfway and later accessing protected pages again. What You Will Learn Know what Jakarta/Java EE security includes and how to get started learning and using this technology for today's and tomorrow's enterprise Java applications Secure applications: traditional server-side web apps built with JSF (Faces) as well as applications based on client-side frameworks (such as Angular) and JAX-RS Work with the daunting number of security APIs in Jakarta EE Understand how EE security evolved Who This Book Is For Java developers using Jakarta EE and writing applications that need to be secured (every application). Basic knowledge of Servlets and CDI is assumed. Library writers and component providers who wish to provide additional authentication mechanisms for Jakarta EE also will find the book useful.

Summary : Authenticating users with passwords is a fundamental part of web and mobile security. It is also the part that's easy to get wrong. This book is for developers who want to learn how to implement password authentication correctly and securely. It answers many questions that everyone has when writing their own authentication system or learning a framework that implements it. Store passwords securely What is the best password hashing function for your app? How many bytes of salt should you use? What is the optimal password hash length? How to encode and store hashes? When to pepper and encrypt hashes and how to do it securely? How to avoid vulnerabilities in bcrypt, PBKDF2, and scrypt, and which Argon2 version to use? How to update password hashes to keep up with Moore's law? How to enforce password quality? Remember users How to implement secure sessions that are not vulnerable to timing attacks and database leaks? Why is it a bad idea to use JWT and signed cookies for sessions? How to allow users to view and revoke sessions from other devices? Verify usernames and email addresses How to verify email addresses and why is it important? How Skype failed to do it and got hacked. How to avoid vulnerabilities caused by Unicode? How to disallow profanities and reserved words in usernames? Add multi-factor authentication How to implement two-factor authentication with TOTP and WebAuthn/U2F security keys How to generate recovery codes? How long should they be? How to rate limit 2FA and why not doing it breaks everything? Also... How to create accessible registration and log in forms? How to use cryptography to improve security and when to avoid it? How to generate random strings that are free from modulo bias? The book applies to any programming language. It explains concepts and algorithms in English and provides references to relevant libraries for popular programming languages.

Summary : Human factors and usability issues have traditionally played a limited role in security research and secure systems development. Security experts have largely ignored usability issues--both because they often failed to recognize the importance of human factors and because they lacked the expertise to address them. But there is a growing recognition that today's security problems can be solved only by addressing issues of usability and human factors. Increasingly, well-publicized security breaches are attributed to human errors that might have been prevented through more usable software. Indeed, the world's future cyber-security depends upon the deployment of security technology that can be broadly used by untrained computer users. Still, many people believe there is an inherent tradeoff between computer security and usability. It's true that a computer without passwords is usable, but not very secure. A computer that makes you authenticate every five minutes with a password and a fresh drop of blood might be very secure, but nobody would use it. Clearly, people need computers, and if they can't use one that's secure, they'll use one that isn't. Unfortunately, unsecured systems aren't usable for long, either. They get hacked, compromised, and otherwise rendered useless. There is increasing agreement that we need to design secure systems that people can actually use, but less agreement about how to reach this goal. Security & Usability is the first book-length work describing the current state of the art in this emerging field. Edited by security experts Dr. Lorrie Faith Cranor and Dr. Simson Garfinkel, and authored by cutting-edge security and human-computerinteraction (HCI) researchers world-wide, this volume is expected to become both a classic reference and an inspiration for future research. Security & Usability groups 34 essays into six parts: Realigning Usability and Security---with careful attention to user-centered design principles, security and usability can be synergistic. Authentication Mechanisms-- techniques for identifying and authenticating computer users. Secure Systems--how system software can deliver or destroy a secure user experience. Privacy and Anonymity Systems--methods for allowing people to control the release of personal information. Commercializing Usability: The Vendor Perspective--specific experiences of security and software vendors (e.g.,IBM, Microsoft, Lotus, Firefox, and Zone Labs) in addressing usability. The Classics--groundbreaking papers that sparked the field of security and usability. This book is expected to start an avalanche of discussion, new ideas, and further advances in this important field.
