DoD Security Requirements:
http://iase.disa.mil/stigs/a-z.html
http://iase.disa.mil/stigs/downloads/zip/app_services_checklist_v1r1-1-20...
See Sec3A, Requirement APS0140:
"Only DIGEST, FORM, and CLIENT-CERT types can be used when setup and configured
properly:"
I don't really know why "DIGEST" is listed as acceptible (as a practical
matter it isn't, due to other security restrictions).
Technically, it doesn't have to be FORM based, as a Javascript transmission would also
pass. Just HTTP BASIC will be a significant hindrance to AS/EAP deployment within
government installations, though.

Management Console needs to support FORM authentication

https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-4646
Project: Application Server 7
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Console
Reporter: Jess Sightler
Assignee: Jason Greene
Labels: security
Many clients have security requirements that disallow HTTP Basic authentication. HTTP
Digest is also disallowed due to the requirement to store plaintext passwords on the
server. HTTP Form based authentication would provide a much smoother experience for users
and comply with client requirements.
