Summary: Recommend this book for any serious Java Developer
Comment: This book was my first introduction to Java Security. After reading the book, I was able to gain exposure to many complex areas of the Java Security/JCA/JCE APIs to include Class loaders, Byte Code Verifiers, Policy Files, Security Manager, Access Controller, Permissions, Message Digests, Data Encryption, Key Agreements, Digital Signatures, and Digital Certificates. My only negative comment was that the author did not provide any examples using the Secure Sockets Library (SSL). I am currently working on implementing security related issues associated with B2B data exchange and felt that this book was extremely helpful. I would highly recommend this book for any serious Java Developer.

Summary: Good if you want to become an expert, not good for how-to.
Comment: If you wish to become an in-depth expert in Java security, this book is for you. But if you just want to find out how to add specific aspects of Java security to your applications, this book is the long way around the block. It would be better to have some how-to examples early in each chapter, followed by the background and theory of each concept. Instead, you have to figure out "how-to" based on the discussion.

Summary: Good Overview of Java Security
Comment: The term "security" means many different things. This book deals with the built-in security features of Java, which most programmers access through the Security Manager and Access Controller. Overall, I liked this book and found it a really good introduction to secutiry. However, for the price of this book, I expected a lot more infomation. For example, I would have liked it if the author explored the cryptographic package in depth and gave more real world examples of using ciphers and encryption. ALthough this is not technically what the book is about, most people think of cryptogrophy in terms of security.
