public class SecurityConfiguration
extends XIncludeAwareParserConfiguration

This configuration allows Xerces to behave in a security-conscious manner; that is, it permits applications to instruct Xerces to limit certain operations that could be exploited by malicious document authors to cause a denail-of-service attack when the document is parsed. In addition to the features and properties recognized by the base parser configuration, this class recognizes these additional features and properties:
