Configuring XML basic authentication for Version 5.x web services with an assembly tool

With the basic authentication (BasicAuth) authentication method, the request sender generates a BasicAuth security token using a callback handler. The request receiver retrieves the BasicAuth security token from the SOAP message and validates it using a Java™ Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) login module. Trust is established by using user name and password validation.
