  Summary: Deprecate the Security Manager for removal in a future
  release. The Security Manager dates from Java 1.0. It has not been the
  primary means of securing client-side Java code for many years, and it
  has rarely been used to secure server-side code. To move Java forward,
  we intend to deprecate the Security Manager for removal in concert with
  the legacy Applet API (JEP 398).
