title: Security Concerns with NetLogo
body: <p>I'm quite new to NetLogo, but I'm very interested in learning more about it.  Currently I'm trying to get my company to allow it to be installed on our corporate network, however I'm being denied by IT security because "The product is capable of producing stand-alone executables."</p>
  
  <p>So my questions to you guys are:</p>
  
  <p>Is NetLogo capable of compiling java code, or does it merely use externally-created (via another not included program) JAR files as extensions?</p>
  
  <p>Are any of the programs (Netlogo, Netlogo 3D, HubNet, or Behaviorsearch) included with the NetLogo 64 or 32-bit installers capable of creating standalone executables?</p>
  
  <p>Do you know of any way to leverage the Netlogo suite for malicious purposes?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for taking the time to read this.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.</p>
