Securing remote integration APIs

Some MicService remote APIs secure access by forcing the user of those methods to provide the UserInfo object. If a valid UserInfo object is not provided, an error occurs and the call is not completed.

The following remote methods are protected because they either provide sensitive information or perform sensitive data transaction processing:

To run these methods, the caller must retrieve a valid UserInfo object and pass it to the method to gain access to the secure layer.

A UserInfo object is a serialized object that contains user details including user, password, locale, language, and time zone information, that is used for security purposes.

The system uses Java Remote Method Invocation (RMI) and Java Remote Method Protocol (JRMP). You can communicate to the system services by using a secure version of JRMP protocol using SSL.
