[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-4646) Management Console needs to support FORM authentication

[Jason Greene (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-4646?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12688439#comment-12688439 ] 

Jason Greene commented on AS7-4646:
-----------------------------------

Jess is certainly right about FIPS. FIPS essentially whitelists all encryption algorithms an entire product is allowed to use. So hes right that md5 would fail.

> 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.
