This post is about an example of securing REST API with a client certificate (a.k.a. X.509 certificate authentication). In other words, a client verifies a server according to its certificate and the server identifies that client according to a client certificate (so-called the mutual authentication). In connection with Spring Security, we will be […]
This post is about using Spring Shell to make a simple application for scanning open TCP ports.

This post is about creating PKCS #12 to serve e.g. your content via HTTPS in your application itself or in another web container (such a Tomcat or another application server). The PKCS #12 format is a binary format for storing cryptography objects. It usually contains the server certificate, any intermediate certificates (i.e. […]

In this example, we will secure a home page (/home) with Spring Security using Radius authentication. Technologies used: Spring Boot 2.0.4.RELEASE TinyRadius 1.0.1 Embedded Tomcat 8.5.23 Quick Overview: Create a new base Spring Boot project with required dependencies Create a simple login using Spring Security Create your own RadiusAuthenticationProvider Simple […]
This example will demonstrate how to use Spring Integration for downloading files from a remote SFTP server. Two possible authentications could be used, i.e. public key or password. Technologies used: Spring Boot 2.0.4.RELEASE Spring Integration 5.0.7.RELEASE (managed by Spring Boot) Spring 5.0.8.RELEASE (managed by Spring Boot) Quick overview: Create SFTP […]
This example will demonstrate how to use Spring Integration for uploading files to a remote SFTP server. You can use both of possible authentication methods, i.e. with a public key or with a password. The real example shows the public key authentication only because it is a more production-ready choice. […]
This post shows how to implement parallelism in Java using its native java.util.concurrent classes. I mean especially using parallel Fork-Join Framework (available since Java 1.7), which is most suitable for processing of high complex (CPU intensive) tasks. I mean that case when you have one very complex task and you […]
This post shows how to use a FilteredRowSet object. It lets you filter the number of rows that are visible in a RowSet object so that you can work with only the relevant data that you need. You may decide how you want to “filter” the data and apply that […]
This post shows how to make any device (running on Windows, MAC OS X, Linux-based systems) visible public (outside of your private or home network), without any public IPv4 address. I mean the state when you are stuck behind a NAT gateway or proxy and also your Internet Service Provider […]
