Overview of this book

With experienced hackers constantly targeting apps, properly securing them becomes challenging when you integrate this factor with legacy code, new technologies, and other frameworks. Written by a Lead Cloud and Security Architect as well as CISSP, this book helps you easily secure your Java apps with Spring Security, a trusted and highly customizable authentication and access control framework. The book shows you how to implement different authentication mechanisms and properly restrict access to your app. You’ll learn to integrate Spring Security with popular web frameworks like Thymeleaf and Microservice and Cloud services like Zookeeper and Eureka, along with architecting solutions that leverage its full power while staying loosely coupled. You’ll also see how Spring Security defends against session fixation, moves into concurrency control, and how you can use session management for administrative functions. This fourth edition aligns with Java 17/21 and Spring Security 6, covering advanced security scenarios for RESTful web services and microservices. This ensures you fully understand the issues surrounding stateless authentication and discover a concise approach to solving those issues. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to integrate Spring Security 6 with GraalVM native images seamlessly, from start to finish.

Part 3: Exploring OAuth 2 and SAML 2

This part focuses on OAuth 2, which is a widely adopted method for trusted identity management, empowering users to centrally manage their identities through a single trusted provider. Users benefit from the convenience of securely storing their passwords and personal information with the trusted OAuth 2 provider while retaining the option to disclose personal information as needed. Websites implementing OAuth 2 authentication can trust that users presenting OAuth 2 credentials are authenticated individuals.

In the exploration of SAML 2 support, we delve into the intricacies of integrating Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML 2.0) into Spring Security applications. SAML 2.0, an XML-based standard, facilitates the exchange of authentication and authorization data between Identity Providers (IdP) and Service Providers (SP), offering seamless integration within Spring Security frameworks.
