  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Guard
    public class ISSecurityPermission
extends Permission
    This class ISSecurityPermission is used to protect the Access Manager resources which should be accessed only by trusted application. The resources this Permission is used to protect are: OpenAM administrator DN and password, and access to the encryption and decryption methods used to encrypt all passwords in OpenAM services. The supported permissions is "access" and supported actions are "adminpassword" and "crypt". So in the Java security policy file which will define the security options to grant this permission to code bases, it should be done as below: 
     grant codeBase "file:{directory where jars are located}/-" {
 com.sun.identity.security.ISSecurityPermission "access",
 "adminpassword,crypt"; };
    Note: The property com.sun.identity.security.checkcaller should be set to true in AMConfig.properties file to enable the Java security permissions check.
