This article elaborates on security issues related to mobile code and agent-based systems. In particular, it addresses the problems of (a) how to protect an execution environment against potentially malicious mobile code, and (b) how to protect the mobile code against potentially malicious hosts and execution environments. The article overviews and discusses some technical approaches to address the problems. It concludes with the insight that possible solutions for the problems are not independent, and that some solutions for problem (b) make it more difficult to find appropriate solutions for problem (a).
