HTML Forms-based Authentication Schemes

SiteMinder supports the use of customized HTML forms to collect authentication information. In a forms-based authentication scheme, a user can be required to enter additional information such as a Social Security Number, organization, account number, etc. The Policy Server verifies the additional information against user directory attributes before authenticating the user.
