WebLogic SecurityWebLogic's security framework exposes a set of fully implemented Service Provider Interfaces for authentication, authorization, auditing, and PKI management. Modules from third-party security vendors can plug right into the WebLogic Server framework. A new role-based authorization module can be applied to all J2EE and non-J2EE resources. An embedded entitlement engine makes it easy to create prose-based rules for dynamically assigning roles and access privileges. The following improvements minimize the time spent developing and administrating security: Improved functionality for creating security roles and security policies. New windows and improved options facilitate managing access to WebLogic resources such as the Administration Console, the Admin tool, MBeans, applications, COM, EIS, EJB, JDBC, JNDI, JMS, servers, and Web applications. Improved support for keystores and SSL configuration. The SSL implementation of WebLogic Server supports the use of keystores for storing private keys and trusted CAs. Keystores add a level of protection to the flat files used in past release of WebLogic Server. The default configuration of SSL and demonstration keystores provide users with secure communication out of the box. When a deployment is ready to move to production, the configuration of keystores and SSL has been simplified through the implementation of a wizard. Support for Sun's Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) package. WebLogic Server now supports the JDK 1.4.1 java.security provider configuration and the Sun JCE provider is used by default.This package provides a framework and implementations for encryption, key generation and key agreement, and Message Authentication Code (MAC) algorithms. Support for encryption includes symmetric, asymmetric, block, and stream ciphers. The software also supports secure streams and sealed objects. Export/Import utility. This utility allows security data (users, groups, roles, and credential maps) from a security realm or a security provider to be exported to a file. This file can then be used to import the security data into a different security realm or provider. This feature eliminates the need to re-enter security data when moving from development to production. |

Use our Developer Tools
WebLogic Workshop is an
integrated development environment for building WebLogic Platform applications.
With WebLogic Workshop, you can focus on building business logic into your
application rather than on complex implementation details. Whether you are an
application developer with a problem to solve or a J2EE expert, WebLogic
Workshop makes it easy to design, test, and deploy enterprise-class web
applications and web services. In the latest release, we've added support
for creating Enterprise Java Beans greatly simplifying the development and
maintenance of EJBs.
