As cybersecurity threats continue to evolve, ensuring robust security measures within enterprise applications is more critical than ever. The latest VPC on “Securing Your Java Ecosystem” aims to address these challenges by offering a forum where attendees can learn from and engage with leading subject matter experts. This two-day online event will be organized around two major topics, with two tracks available to offer detailed insights into different Java security aspects.

The first track, ‘Developer Insight – Designing Secure and Resilient Solutions for Jakarta EE Application’, will run on June 26 and will provide practical examples and interactive sessions to help application developers enhance the security and resilience of their solutions. The track ‘Strategic Insight – Security & Cyber Resilience in the Java World’, will take place on June 27 and will focus on the high-level aspects of security and cyber resilience within the Java ecosystem. During the day, attendees will be able to learn more and take part in discussions on the latest EU’s Cyber Resilience Act.

With a proven track record of delivering secure middleware, Payara has been authorized by the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) Program from the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) as a CVE Numbering Authority (CAN).
