Java Authentication and Authorization Service, or JAAS, pronounced "Jazz", [1] is the Java implementation of the standard Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) information security framework. [2] JAAS was introduced as an extension library to the Java Platform, Standard Edition 1.3 and was integrated in version 1.4.
A pluggable authentication module (PAM) is a mechanism to integrate multiple low-level authentication schemes into a high-level application programming interface (API). PAM allows programs that rely on authentication to be written independently of the underlying authentication scheme.
Distributed stream processing framework. Apache Shiro: Java security framework that performs authentication, authorization, cryptography, and session management. Apache Sling: Web framework for the Java platform designed to create content-centric applications on top of a JSR-170-compliant (a.k.a. JCR) content repository such as Apache Jackrabbit.
Attribute-based access control (ABAC), also known as policy-based access control for IAM, defines an access control paradigm whereby a subject's authorization to perform a set of operations is determined by evaluating attributes associated with the subject, object, requested operations, and, in some cases, environment attributes.
Authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) is a framework used to control and track access within a computer network.. Authentication is concerned with proving identity, authorization with granting permissions, accounting with maintaining a continuous and robust audit trail via logging.
User-delegated tokens: These are tokens such as OAuth [2] which are granted based on user authentication. Policy & attribute-based access control: policies use attributes to define how APIs can be invoked using standards such as ALFA or XACML. The above methods provide different level of security and ease of integration.
The user authenticates to an access control mechanism external to Shibboleth. Shibboleth generates a SAML 1.1 authentication assertion with a temporary "handle" contained within it. This handle allows the IdP to recognize a request about a particular browser user as corresponding to the principal that authenticated earlier.
Authentication and access control are often combined into a single operation, so that access is approved based on successful authentication, or based on an anonymous access token. Authentication methods and tokens include passwords, biometric analysis, physical keys, electronic keys and devices, hidden paths, social barriers, and monitoring by ...
