The SecurityManager
lThe SecurityManager class (in java.lang) provides the necessary mechanism for creating a security policy that defines tasks that an application can and cannot do:
–class MySecurityManager extends SecurityManager {
–    private  boolean checkDelete = true;
–    public void checkDelete(String file) {
–        if (checkDelete) {
–          throw new SecurityException(“not allowed”);
–        }
–   }
–}
