Understanding Business Services Server Security

Note: This chapter covers the authentication of users of business services. For information about authorizing users to access published business service objects, see "Managing Published Business Services Security" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools Security Administration Guide.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne provides authentication security to ensure that published business service users are authenticated in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. The Business Services Server uses the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Login Module as the authentication mechanism for authenticating users against the security server.

The module is automatically installed during the deployment of a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne business services package to the Business Services Server and configured for all published services. The module uses Java authentication and authorization service (JAAS) to validate the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne users against the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Security Server.

To allow access to JD Edwards EnterpriseOne published business services without providing user credentials, you must set up anonymous login. Anonymous login directs the application server to use the anonymous login credentials stored in the jdbj.ini file for user authentication, instead of the EnterpriseOne Login Module.
