Abstract:
1. A method, implemented in a resource-constrained device, comprising: providing, at the resource-constrained device an application container which includes a plurality of server applications executing therein, wherein each server application providing a plurality of application firewalls, including, for each server application, its own application firewall which restricts the application context and security tokens specific to that server application from use by others of the server applications; providing a plurality of virtual hosts, including for each server application a virtual host associated with that server application which listens on a secure port to receive requests directed to that server application, including during deployment of each server application to the resource-constrained device, providing a physical interconnect layer which is configured to allow the client applications to make requests to the server applications within the application container; providing a secure port redirector within the application container and coupled to a default port which receives the requests via the physical interconnect layer, wherein the secure port redirector receiving, at a security layer which executes within the application contexts of the server applications, a rebuilt request, from the client application executing on the client device, directed to a particular server application, and using the security tokens specific to that server application to
