(Continued from previous question...) User Authentication and Authorization Examples: Single-User, Embedded Environment
In this example, Derby is embedded in a single-user application that is deployed in a number of different and potentially insecure ways.

The end-user must know the bootPassword to boot the database and the user name and password to connect to the database. Even if the database ended up in an e-mail, only the intended recipient would be able to access data in the database.
