Security Notes

This section provides information about supported connections and privilege requirements.

Supported Connections

Many messaging systems support the capability to encrypt messages between clients and brokers. The configuration is specific to each messaging system. However, typically the encryption is abstracted so that the choice of a specially configured connection factory is sufficient to enable encryption between the JMS Listener adapter and the messaging system broker.

Required Administrative Privileges

The user and password configured for the JMS Listener adapter must be an authenticated user in the JMS messaging system, and that user must be granted sufficient privilege to read messages from the JMS destination.

The messaging system administrator should protect the JMS connection by disabling default authentication. For further protection, the messaging system administrator should configure the authorization (access control) to optimize security.
