Jakarta Security, Jakarta Authorization, and Jakarta Authentication Explained

Security is a major component of application development. Jakarta EE provides the robust Jakarta Security specification that when paired with the Jakarta Authentication and Jakarta Authorization specifications, provides APIs that deliver end-to-end security. There are a large number of application processes that require security measures, and these specifications provide the ability to do so in a straightforward manner using annotations and minimal XML configurations. Jakarta EE compliant containers and deployment environments adhere to the constructs of the Authentication and Authorization policies to ensure that applications can be secured in a standard way and deployed across a number of different environments.
