HST-Apache Shiro Integration Support

What is HST - Apache Shiro Integration Support?

Apache Shiro is a powerful and easy-to-use Java security framework that performs authentication, authorization, cryptography, and session management.

HST - Apache Shiro Integration Support project provides seamless integration with Apache Shiro for HST-2 SITE applications.

Mainly, HST - Apache Shiro Integration Support project provides the following:

• Hippo Repository based Realm component providing authentication/authorization against Hippo Repository security data store.

Because Apache Shiro provides a lot of out-of-box security integration solutions such as RDBMS, LDAP and CAS authentication, you can take advantage of those with HST-2!
