The SiteMinder Agent for IBM WebSphere consists of three custom Agent modules that plug into the WebSphere security infrastructure.
Establishes a Web Trust Association between WebSphere and SiteMinder so that credentials obtained from HTTP requests for web container resources can be validated against associated user directories configured in SiteMinder. Populates the Subject with a SiteMinder Principal that can be used by the SiteMinder JACC Provider for authorization.
Validates user credentials obtained from Java client requests and system logins against associated user directories configured in SiteMinder. Populates the Subject with a SiteMinder Principal that can be used by the SiteMinder JACC Provider for authorization.
Provides SiteMinder policy-based authorization decisions for requests for Web or EJB resources using credentials in an associated SiteMinder Principal placed in the subject by the SiteMinder TAI or SiteMinder Login Module.
