I’m an iOS developer and I need to develop a web service, because the iOS App needs to retrieve some information from a database stored in a server.
I want to develop this web service using Java EE, but I would like to have some information about the security of Java EE, because I need to ensure the security of data stored into the database on the server.
Do you have some book or great tutorial to recommend about Java EE security?
This is the link of Java EE security official tutorial :
