Description

Right now the security documentation is divided among our user guides. This makes is hard for customers to understand Derby's defenses and how to configure all relevant security mechanisms for an application. As demonstrated by the discussion on DERBY-6160, some security mechanisms involve multiple Derby jar files and multiple application tiers. Material for these mechanisms is scattered across the existing user guides. It would be less confusing if all of Derby's security documentation were separated out into a new Security Guide.
