Out corporation has User Management (UM) application to manage users and roles for all
company applications. There is no self-registration in single applications.
Out application platform is IBM WebSphere 6.1 (WAS). We have implementation of custom user
registry (external JACC authorization provider), which negotiates container managed
authentication/authorization.
Our applications transparently use FORM-based authentication and users are checked against
UM.
This approach ensures the Subject of logged in user contains LTPA token in its private
credentials. It means I can call EJB deployed in different WAS instance and this call is
trusted.
So thera two + one reasons:
- all applications use same user registry
- LTPA token
+ form-based auth is "recommended" solution of out company
