Abstract
A method and system for providing security protection to Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) objects located on a server. An EJB shadow object is created for the CORBA object. The EJB shadow object invokes an EJB security mechanism on behalf of the CORBA object, thus protecting the CORBA object from unauthorized object requesters. In a preferred embodiment, requesters are categorized and identified by their roles in the enterprise. Only those requesters having a proper role are authorized to access the requested object.
