CDI : Hacking Java EE

Robb Greathouse

In this talk we’ll review over the options you have for enhancing Java EE 7 using the portable extension SPI introduced by CDI, from registering custom beans, interceptors and decorators, to customizing dependency injection points, to aliasing annotations, to augmenting the annotation-metadata on registered beans, to introducing custom scopes. The talk will cover when and how to weave these enhancements into the container lifecycle using the CDI eventing system.

EAP6 Performance

Bruno Georges

In June 2012, Red Hat released the latest version of its flagship application server, JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6 (EAP6), a compliant, high performance, scalable and modular EE6 runtime. Not only the JBoss team released its most performant and efficient EE runtime to date, it also created the technology that helps developer to do there job in the most productive way. In this session we will discuss an approach to get the best out of your Java runtime, and also from your OS and application.

Production Level Security in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6 (JBoss EAP)

Bharti Kundal

1)Purpose:
With the launch of JBoss Application Server 7 (JBoss AS 7), there were several new features added to the security sytem. JBoss EAP 6.0.0 is based on JBoss AS 7.1.2. The objective of the presentation is to highlight how we can secure JBoss EAP 6.0.0 and make it production ready. This presentation would also focus on what all debugging options are available for troubleshooting common issues that come up while configuring the security subsystem

2)Design/methodology/approach:
The presentation would include small demos,which will help to understand how we can configure the security subsystem. Examples are: configuring various authentication modules,configuring vaults for securing passwords, securing management interfaces, enabling encrypted communication(SSL) etc.

3)Findings:
The security subsystem provides the infrastructure for all security functionality in the Enterprise Application Platform. The security subsystem can be configured in the managed domain or in the standalone configuration file. Most of the configuration elements can be configured using the web-based management console or the console-based management CLI.

What does EAP 6 provide?

A)Password Vaults for Sensitive Strings
Web applications and other deployments often include clear-text files, such as XML deployment descriptors, which include sensitive information such as passwords and other sensitive strings. JBoss EAP includes a password mechanism called “The Vault†which enables you to encrypt sensitive strings and store them in an encrypted keystore. The vault mechanism manages decryption of the strings for use with security domains, security realms, or other verification systems. This provides an extra layer of security. The mechanism relies upon tools that are included in all supported Java Development Kit (JDK) implementations.

B)Authentication Modules:

i)org.jboss.security.ClientLoginModule
ii)org.jboss.security.auth.spi.BaseCertLoginModule
iii)org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule
iv)org.jboss.security.auth.spi.CertRolesLoginModule
v)org.jboss.security.auth.spi.DatabaseServerLoginModule
vi)org.jboss.security.auth.spi.DatabaseCertLoginModule
vii)org.jboss.security.auth.spi.IdentityLoginModule
viii)org.jboss.security.auth.spi.LdapLoginModule
ix)org.jboss.security.auth.spi.LdapExtLoginModule
x)org.jboss.security.auth.spi.RoleMappingLoginModule
xi)org.jboss.security.auth.spi.RunAsLoginModule
xii)org.jboss.security.auth.spi.SimpleServerLoginModule
xiii)org.picketbox.datasource.security.ConfiguredIdentityLoginModule

and there are many more modules.

C)Securing Management Interface
All management interfaces in JBoss EAP 6 are secured by default using a file-based solution. For stronger and more flexible security we can switch to LDAP to Authenticate the Management Interfaces. On a production server we can disable the GUI management interface.

D)Enabling SSL:
Include some basics on how to create certificates and configure the HTTPS connectors in EAP 6.
The overall presentation would help in understanding how can we configure EAP 6 for configuring security subsytem and address some difficulties as well.

E)PicketLink/SAML Support:An introduction of SAML with JBoss EAP 6

F)SPNEGO:JBoss supports authentication with Windows as well.
