java.lang.Object
org.forgerock.caf.authentication.framework.AuthenticationFramework
public final class AuthenticationFramework extends Object

An authentication framework for protecting all types of resources.

The authentication framework can be configured with a single session authentication module, which will authenticate requests based on some session identifier, and an ordered list of authentication modules, that are executed in order on a first succeeds wins basis.

The authentication framework must be configured with a non-null AuditApi instance, so that it can audit authentication outcomes.
