JCatapult security in depth

This talk will focus on the JCatapult security framework and how it can be used and extended to provide security in web applications. JCatapult is a new web application platform and one of the features it provides is a security framework that handles most web application security needs. This framework is extensible and defines APIs that allow extremely loose coupling to the framework itself.

JCatapult is a new web application development platform that provides many features, including a security framework. JCatapult is discovery based and the security framework is no exception. This talk will show how JCatapult applications can simply add the security framework to their dependencies, implement the necessary interfaces and quickly add authentication and authorization to the web application.

Here are the topics we will cover:

  • JCatapult discovery
  • Adding the security framework
  • Custom user objects
  • Implementing the security interfaces
  • Adding a login form
  • Configuring authorization
  • Saved request handling

Although not required, some knowledge knowledge of JCatapult prior to attending this talk is helpful. In order to understand how JCatapult web applications work, attendees should try to attend the JCatapult - components, services and more talk first.
