All MIDP applications are "untrusted" unless otherwise setup to have some explicit trust, this is done by giving each MIDlet suite it's own resources and not allowing access to or "see" other suites resources.

However, while restricting access to resources MIDP must also:

1. Enable an internal class to perform a larger set of actions than the suite using it
2. Enable a "trusted" suite to perform a larger set of actions than "untrusted" suites

The first feature depends on the MIDletSuiteLoader class and SecurityToken class. MIDletSuiteLoader, being the first class running in the VM is implicitly trusted to create and issue SecurityToken objects to the internal classes that need them. Restricted internal methods take a SecurityToken as an extra argument, which they check before performing their task. A "untrusted" MIDlet cannot get a SecurityToken object on its own so it will be restricted.

The second feature is depends on the Scheduler class, MIDletSuite interface, and Installer class. The Scheduler is anchor of trust, from which a restricted public method can get the interface to scheduled suite and check to see if the suite is permitted perform the action. The Installer class determines if a suite is "trusted".
