Use of unauthenticated HTTPS

There are many practical business reasons for supporting unauthenticated access to WebSEAL over HTTPS:

• Some applications do not require a personal login, but require sensitive information, such as addresses and credit card numbers. Examples include online purchases of airline tickets and other merchandise.
• Some applications require that you register for an account with the business before proceeding with further transactions. Again, sensitive information must be passed over the network.
