Dealing with Passwords in Java Applications: 5 Best Practices You Should Follow

 In modern Java applications—whether core Java applications or enterprise-level web applications—working with passwords is inevitable. Passwords are sensitive pieces of information, just like Social Security Numbers (SSNs), and if you’re handling real human data in systems such as online banking or healthcare portals, it’s critical to implement best practices for dealing with passwords securely. Below, I’ll share five essential best practices that I’ve learned and recommend for managing passwords, particularly when you are handling authentication and authorization. While these tips are a good starting point, be sure to tailor them to your application’s requirements and security policies. 1) Use SSL/TLS to Transfer Username and Password When users send passwords over the network, it is crucial to use SSL/TLS to encrypt the communication. This ensures that sensitive information is protected from eavesdroppers. Tools like LDAP and Active Directory are commonly used for storing usern...

New Features in Java 11

  Java 11 introduced several new features and enhancements. Here are some notable features with examples: Local-Variable Syntax for Lambda Parameters: Java 11 allows var to be used in lambda parameters, which provides improved readability and conciseness. Example: java // Before Java 11   someList.forEach((String item) -> { System.out.println(item); }); // With Java 11   someList.forEach(( var item) -> { System.out.println(item); }) HTTP Client (Standard API): Java 11 introduced a new HTTP client API as a replacement for the deprecated HttpURLConnection . It provides a more modern and flexible way to send HTTP requests and handle responses. Example import java.net.URI; import java.net.http.HttpClient; import java.net.http.HttpRequest; import java.net.http.HttpResponse; public class HttpClientExample { public static void main (String[] args) throws Exception { HttpClient client = HttpClient.newHttpClient(); HttpRequest request = HttpReque...

How does a hash map work internally in Java?

Hash map work internally in Java Basically, HashMap is an array of Entry class, a static inner class defined in HashMap is as below: static class Entry implements Map. Entry  { final K key; V value; Entry next; final int hash; //getters and setters } Each element in Hashmap stores in it a key, its value, a reference to next entry in case hash value is the same for two entries, in that case, a linked list will be formed. Default initial capacity of a HashMap is 16 i.e a HashMap is initialized with a default 16 sized array. Now, let us see what happens when we put an element into HashMap. Following is the code for put method in hashmap: public V put(K key, V value) { if (key == null) return putForNullKey(value); int hash = hash(key.hashCode()); int i = indexFor(hash, table.length); for (Entry e = table[i]; e != null; e = e.next) { Object k; if (e.hash == hash && ((k = e.key) == key || key.equals(k))) { V oldValue = e.value; e....
