[jira] [Created] (ACCUMULO-586) sign jars when building a release

Adam Fuchs created ACCUMULO-586:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: sign jars when building a release
                 Key: ACCUMULO-586
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-586
             Project: Accumulo
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Adam Fuchs


As part of the release process we should include the following steps:
1. Generate a new key pair
2. Use it to sign the jars
3. Generate a java security policy file that includes the public key
4. Destroy the private key

This opens up the possibility of using the java security manager to restrict what code can be loaded and increase the security of Accumulo.
