Security classes
The AS/400 Toolbox for Java
gives you security classes. You use the security classes to provide
secured connections to an AS/400 system, verify a user's identity,
and associate a user with the operating system thread when running
on the local AS/400 system. The security services included are:
- Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): Provides
secure connections both by encrypting the data exchanged between a
client and an AS/400 server session and by performing server
authentication.
- Authentication Services: Provide the
ability to:
- Authenticate a user identity and password against the
OS/400 user registry.
- Ability to assign an identity to the current OS/400 thread.
