9.2 <strong>WebSphere</strong> Application Server security architecture<br />

<strong>WebSphere</strong> Application Server v5.0 is a J2EE 1.3 compliant Java application<br />

server; it uses a declarative security model in which an application expresses<br />

security constraints in a form that is external to the application. This external form<br />

of the constraint allows the application to be independent of the chosen security<br />

mechanism. <strong>Security</strong> mechanisms are defined and configured as part of the<br />

global application server security.<br />

► Global <strong>Security</strong> specifies the global security configuration for a managed<br />

domain and applies to all applications running on <strong>WebSphere</strong> Application<br />

Server. It determines whether security will be applied at all, sets up the user<br />

registry against which the authentication will take place, defines<br />

authentication mechanisms and so on. Global security is managed from the<br />

Administrative Console. You will notice that many of the values for global<br />

security act as defaults.<br />
