WebSphere Application Server supports security in the CORBA C++ client to access-protected enterprise beans. If configured, C++ CORBA clients can access protected enterprise bean methods using a client certificate to achieve mutual authentication on WebSphere Application Server applications.
You
can achieve interoperability of Security Authentication Service between the
C++ Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) client and WebSphere
Application Server using Common Secure Interoperability Version 2 (CSIv2)
authentication protocol over Remote Method Invocation over the Internet Inter-ORB
Protocol (RMI-IIOP). The CSIv2 security service protocol has authentication,
attribute and transport layers. Among the three layers, transport authentication
is conceptually simple, however, cryptographically based transport authentication
is the strongest. WebSphere Application Server has implemented the transport
authentication layer, so that C++ secure CORBA clients can use it effectively
in making CORBA clients and protected enterprise bean resources work together.

more information, see Secure administration, applications, and infrastructure settings and Configuring Common Secure Interoperability Version 2 (CSIV2) and Security Authentication Service (SAS).
Security authentication from non-Java based C++ client to enterprise beans. WebSphere Application Server supports security in the CORBA C++ client to access-protected enterprise beans. If configured, C++ CORBA clients can access protected enterprise bean methods using a client certificate to achieve mutual authentication on WebSphere Application Server applications.
C++ security setting | Description |
---|---|
client_protocol_password | Specifies the password for the user ID. |
client_protocol_user | Specifies the user ID to authenticate at the target server. |
security_sslKeyring | Specifies the name of theRACF keyring for the client to use. The keyring must be defined under the user ID that is issuing the command to run the client. |
