Issue

How to secure access to the Authentication Web Service
Static username/password combination is the only option

Cause

The Authentication Web Service that runs on RSA Mobile for application integration is protected by a basic username/password scheme. The initial credentials are "authapicaller" and "changeit". Currently, other authentication schemes (such as LDAP user or NTLM/Active Directory user) are not supported.

Resolution

An enhancement request is being considered for future versions of RSA Mobile, where a number of alternative authenticators present in the underlying BEA WebLogic application server may be used.
