Security constraints in web applications

Security constraints determine how web content is to be protected.

These properties associate security constraints with one or more web resource collections. A constraint consists of a web resource collection, an authorization constraint and a user data constraint.

This release of WebSphere Application Server supports security constraints defined in the Java Servlet 3.0 specification (JSR-315).

However, if we use the HTTP custom method, see the information in the Security custom properties topic regarding the security.allowCustomHTTPMethods custom property, which differs slightly from its usage in the Java Servlet 3.0 specification.
