--------------------------------------

             Summary: The default Network Server security policy file could be trimmed down somewhat.
                 Key: DERBY-6987
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6987
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Network Server
    Affects Versions: 10.14.1.0
            Reporter: Bryan Pendleton
            Assignee: Bryan Pendleton


As described here (https://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.14/security/rsecnetservbasic.html), if you start the Network Server without specifying a security manager, the Network Server will install a default Java security manager that enforces a basic policy.

This basic security policy could be trimmed down and made simpler.

Users who desire a more complex and sophisticated Network Server security policy already have the ability to provide one, as described here (https://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.14/security/csecjavasecurity.html), so trimming down the basic security policy does not affect such deployments.
