CORBA security on the web  an overview
CORBA is a useful platform for world wide web based applications because it abstracts many of the inherent complexities of open distributed applications. Also, CORBA allows the transparent provision of security which is critical for many web based applications, e.g. electronic commerce. This paper outlines the principal security considerations for web-based CORBA applications and presents some of the implementation options to meet these requirements. Special focus is given to the often overlooked problem of integrating secure CORBA-based applications with current firewall technology.
