Class GridSecurityCredentials

java.lang.Object

org.gridgain.grid.security.GridSecurityCredentials

All Implemented Interfaces:

Externalizable, Serializable

public class GridSecurityCredentials
extends Object
implements Externalizable

Security credentials used for client or node authentication. Security credentials are provided by GridSecurityCredentialsProvider which is specified on client or node startup in configuration.

For grid node, security credentials provider is specified in GridConfiguration.setSecurityCredentialsProvider(GridSecurityCredentialsProvider) configuration property. For Java clients, you can provide credentials in GridClientConfiguration.setSecurityCredentialsProvider(...) method.

Getting credentials through GridSecurityCredentialsProvider abstraction allows users to provide custom implementations for storing user names and passwords in their environment, possibly in encrypted format. GridGain comes with GridSecurityCredentialsBasicProvider which simply provides the passed in login and password when encryption or custom logic is not required.

In addition to login and password, security credentials allow for specifying userObject as well, which can be used to pass in any additional information required for authentication.
