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.

Introducing GraalVM

GraalVM is a high-performance runtime that provides significant improvements in application performance and efficiency. GraalVM represents a high-performance runtime Java Development Kit (JDK).

Besides supporting just-in-time (JIT) compilation, GraalVM also enables ahead-of-time compilation of Java applications. This feature facilitates quicker initialization, enhanced runtime performance, and reduced resource consumption. However, the resulting executable is limited to running on the platform for which it was compiled. GraalVM extends its functionality by offering additional programming languages and execution modes. The first production-ready version, GraalVM 19.0, was introduced in May 2019.

In the following section, we will delve deeper into the concept of native images to gain a better understanding.

What are native images?

Native images in GraalVM refer to executables compiled Ahead Of Time (AOT) from Java applications. Unlike traditional Java...
