A New Book About GlassFish Security
I was granted a book from Packt about GlassFish Security. And that is something we want to improve in our products!
The book is about security in Java EE with EJB, Application Client modules and all the friends. Security in GlassFish is a central point of this book. And what is more, there are plenty of real world code and configuration samples. More information about the book can be found on dedicated page on Packt website.
