Java 17 announced the depreciation of the Security Manager (which is ok since hardly anyone used it) but that doesn’t mean the JVM leaves you vulnerable. There are many design features in the JVM and the JDK that are there to help keep your application safe from harm.

In this session, we’ll walk through these points - from compiler, to bytecode to runtime and give you a refresher on how to get the best from these features. We’ll also look at new things in the works, compile-to-native consequences and even some off-the-wall “it’s just an idea” thoughts about how to make the JVM an even more secure environment.
