1.7. Login Modules

Login modules provide user information including logins, passwords and roles within JBoss Fuse. They provide services with customizable user authentication and the ability to reuse existing login modules defined for the platform.

JBoss Fuse bundles various PicketBox (underlying security capability) LoginModules, as well as various PicketLink (federated trust security capability) LoginModules. They can be stacked underneath a single security domain.

For more information on Login Module examples, refer JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.1 Security Guide.
