Abstract
An architecture for extending the Java security model to allow a user or administrator to explicitly deny permissions. By itself, the Java 2 security model does not allow additions to the collections of policy permissions after they have been loaded from the Java policy file. The inventive architecture allows Java applets and applications to dynamically prompt the user to deny a permission that does not exist in the Java policy file. If the user denies the permission, the present invention denies the permission for the ProtectionDomain to which the class asking for the permission belongs. Attributes for the denied permission may be set during runtime and saved across browser sessions.
