This is the minimum recommended (and default) security level setting.

Applications that are signed with a valid or expired certificate and include the Permissions attribute in the manifest for the main JAR file are allowed to run with security prompts.

Applications are also allowed to run with security prompts when the revocation status of the certificate cannot be checked.

Only unsigned applications that request all permissions are blocked.

All other applications are allowed to run with security prompts.

Selecting the Medium security level is not recommended and will make your computer more vulnerable should you run a malicious application.

Applications signed with the MD5withRSA or MD5withDSA algorithms are.

If you encounter either of the messages above, it is recommended that.
