Enhancing Security Of Agent-Oriented Techniques Programs Code Using Jar Files

Agent-oriented techniques characterize an exciting new way of analyzing, designing and building complex software systems in real time world. These techniques have the prospective to significantly improve current practice in software engineering and to extend the range of applications that can feasibly be tackled. The Agent Oriented Programming & Software Engineering is being focused to design distributed software systems. The agent technology has been dominated to enhance software reusability and maintainability. Now more than 100 Agent toolkits for commercial & research purpose are available. Most of the toolkits are designed using Java language. Although use of agent toolkits makes programming more efficient, but the security of code is not achieved. The security of the program code cannot be ignored. In this paper we discuss the approach of using jar file to enhance the security. The JAR files can be electronically signed & verified. The digital certificates can be used by the programmers. By using the jar file agent program code can be more secure. In this paper we will discuss an approach to achieve the security of the code of agent programs. Now we will discuss how jar file are created & security is to be implemented.
