11.3.1.3.16. The security-domain element

The security-domain element specifies the JNDI name of the object that implements the org.jboss.security.AuthenticationManager and org.jboss.security.RealmMapping interfaces. It is more typical to specify the security-domain under the jboss root element so that all EJBs in a given deployment are secured in the same manner. However, it is possible to configure the security domain for each bean configuration. The details of the security manager interfaces and configuring the security layer are discussed in Chapter 8, Security on JBoss .
