Authentication schemes
The Pega Platform offers the following authentication types:
- PRBasic
Based on passwords in the Operator ID data instances and the login form. This is defined by the HTML @baseclass.Web-Login rule, which your application can override.
- PRSecuredBasic
Similar to PRBasic,but passes credentials by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) with Basic HTTP authentication. The login form is defined by the HTML @baseclass.Web-Login-SecuredBasic rule, which your application can override.
- PRCustom
Supports access to an external LDAP directory or a custom authentication scheme.
- PRExtAssign
Supports external assignments (Directed Web Access).
- J2EEContext
Specifies that the application server in which the Pega Platform is deployed uses JAAS to authenticate users.
