Hello guys,

I am looking for documentation and explanation on the way to install JDK
1.3.x (Java Development Kit) or later with security in mind. In fact, there
is a tons of documentation on how to install JDK 1.3.x but there is no real
documentation on how to secure this JDK 1.3.x. I don't think one just needs
to install it as it and let it live like that. I think there is certainly
the need to restrict some things like restriction file permissions of the
JDK binaries or other JDK files.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Bye

Ben
