2-factor authentication

[paul_snyman]

Hi,

Has anybody ever exposed the live portal to the internet and if so have you implemented enhanced security such as 2-factor authentication e.g. SecurID, challenge cards on top of normal user/pwd?

... or something similar to the online banking such as confirming a random sequence of data from a security word?

Thanks in advance,

Hi Paul,

to achieve this, you can make use of JAAS (Java authentication and authorization services). you may want to have a look at a teched session which covers this topic in more detail:

The session is also available as a recorded session:
