Java EE connector security
The Java 2 Platform,
Enterprise Edition (Java EE)
connector architecture defines a standard architecture for connecting
J2EE to heterogeneous enterprise information systems (EIS). Examples
of EIS include Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), mainframe transaction
processing (TP) and database systems.
Enabling trusted context for DB2 databases
Enable trusted context in your applications to improve
how the application server interacts with DB2® database
servers. Use trusted connections to preserve the identity records
of clients that are connecting to a DB2 database
through your applications; trusted connections can provide a more
secure environment by granting access based on the identity of those
users.
Configuring the application server and DB2 to authenticate with Kerberos
The Kerberos authentication mechanism may be used when
both WebSphere® Application Server and the
DB2 server are configured for Kerberos authentication. Kerberos authentication
can provide single sign on (SSO) end-to-end interoperable solutions
and preserves the original requester identity.
Configuring data access security
Safeguard access to your enterprise data by designating
credentials that WebSphere Application
Server uses to authenticate database connections.
