    • Method Detail

      • init

        default void init​(java.util.Properties securityProps)
        Initialize the SecurityManager. This is invoked when a cache is created
        Parameters:
        securityProps - the security properties obtained using a call to DistributedSystem.getSecurityProperties()
      • authenticate

        java.lang.Object authenticate​(java.util.Properties credentials)
                               throws AuthenticationFailedException,
                                      AuthenticationExpiredException
        Verify the credentials provided in the properties Your security manager needs to validate credentials coming from all communication channels. If you use AuthInitialize to generate your client/peer credentials, then the input of this method is the output of your AuthInitialize.getCredentials method. But remember that this method will also need to validate credentials coming from gfsh/jmx/rest client, the framework is putting the username/password under security-username and security-password keys in the property, so your securityManager implementation needs to validate these kind of properties as well. if a channel supports token-based-authentication, the token will be passed to the security manager in the property with the key "security-token".
        Parameters:
        credentials - it contains the security-username, security-password or security-token, as keys of the properties, also the properties generated by your AuthInitialize interface
        Returns:
        a serializable principal object
        Throws:
        AuthenticationFailedException - if the credentials are invalid, this exception will be seen by the client.
        AuthenticationExpiredException - if credentials have expired, this will give the client a second chance to gather new credentials and try login again once more.
      • authorize

        default boolean authorize​(java.lang.Object principal,
                                  ResourcePermission permission)
                           throws AuthenticationExpiredException
        Authorize the ResourcePermission for a given Principal
        Parameters:
        principal - The principal that's requesting the permission
        permission - The permission requested
        Returns:
        true if authorized, false if not
        Throws:
        AuthenticationExpiredException - if the principal has expired.
      • close

        default void close()
        Close any resources used by the SecurityManager, called when a cache is closed.
