Class PKCS11Permission

java.lang.Object

java.security.Permission

java.security.BasicPermission

com.entrust.toolkit.permissions.PKCS11Permission

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.security.Guard

public final class PKCS11Permission
extends java.security.BasicPermission

A PKCS11Permission is required when access the PKCS11 native code in the the toolkit. It is used to protect access to PKCS11 from applications that require access to this resource.

When used as an application, the default implementation of the JVM does not specify a SecurityManager instance, which effectively allows all permissions. However, when used in other contexts such as an applet, a SecurityManager is likely to exist. For such environments, this permission must be enabled if access to PKCS11 is required. This can be done by updating the java.policy file with one of the following

 grant {
    permission com.entrust.toolkit.permissions.PKCS11Permission "PKCS11Permission";
 }

 or 
 
 grant {
    permission com.entrust.toolkit.permissions.PKCS11Permission;
 } 
 

Alternatively, this permission may be granted by enabling java.security.AllPermission.
