1.4.3. Authorization Module

  • Roles
  • Groups
  • Partitions
  • Authenticated User
  • EL-based expressions
  • Permissions
All authorization is performed based on the information stored by PicketLink IDM.
This module is based on Apache DeltaSpike Security module, which means that DeltaSpike's dependencies are transitive and must be available in your project's classpath. Usually, these dependencies would be automatically added to your project.
The authorization module libraries is:
