Securing JAX-RS applications within the web container
You can use the security services available from the web
container to secure Representational State Transfer (REST) resources.
You can configure security mechanisms that define user authentication,
transport security, authorization control, and user to role mappings.
Securing downstream JAX-RS resources
You can secure downstream Java API
for RESTful Web Services (JAX-RS) resources by configuring the BasicAuth
method for authentication and by using the LTPA JAX-RS security handler
to take advantage of single sign-on for user authentication.
Securing JAX-RS clients using SSL
You can secure the communications between your Java API for RESTful Web Services (JAX-RS) application
and clients that invoke the application by using Secure Sockets Layer
(SSL) transport layer security.
Administering secure JAX-RS applications
You
can use the administrative console to administer Java API for RESTful Web Services
(JAX-RS) applications that have enabled security mechanisms.
