Configuring IBM Cognos to Use a Custom Java Authentication Provider

If you implemented a custom Java™ authentication provider with your existing security infrastructure, you can configure IBM Cognos® components to use it.

You can use a custom authentication provider to access and authenticate users to an authentication source. You can also use it as a single signon mechanism to integrate IBM® Cognos components with your security infrastructure. You can hide the namespace from users during logon.

For more information, see the Custom Authentication Provider Developer Guide.
