Skyline and Java

2024-04-25

Occasionally we get questions about Skyline and Java, especially when a new Java security flaw is announced. Here is what you need to know:

  • Skyline is written in C#, so Java library vulnerabilities are not an issue. 

  • The Skyline informational website (https://skyline.ms/)  and related Panorama website  (https://panoramaweb.org/) do use Java, and are professionally maintained by the University of Washington Genome Sciences IT group who are extremely proactive in addressing security vulnerabilities.
