The application of these Java coding guidelines will lead to better systems that are more robust and more resistant to attack. These guidelines cover a wide range of products coded in Java for devices such as PCs, game players, mobile phones, home appliances, and automotive electronics.
Many of the guidelines refer to rules in The CERT® Oracle® Secure Coding Standard for Java. These references are of the form IDS01-J. Normalize strings before validating them where the first three letters of the reference identify the appropriate chapter of the Secure Coding Standard for Java book. For example, IDS refers to Chapter 2, Input Validation and Data Sanitization (IDS). The Secure Coding Standard for Java rules are also available in a wiki at The CERT Oracle Secure Coding Standard for Java where they may have been updated since the Secure Coding Standard for Java book was published.
References in a guideline to other guidelines are simply given by the number and title of the guideline.
