Authentication is the process of verifying the identity of a user; in Qpid, this is done using the SASL framework. Rule-based authorization is a mechanism for specifying the actions that each user is allowed to perform; in Qpid, this is done using an Access Control List (ACL) that is part of the Qpid broker. Encryption is used to ensure that data is not transferred in a plain-text format that could be intercepted and read. Digital signatures provide proof that a given message was sent by a known sender. Encryption and signing are done using SSL (they can also be done using SASL, but SSL provides stronger encryption). + </para> + <section id="sect-Messaging_User_Guide-Security-User_Authentication"> + <title>User Authentication</title> + <para> + AMQP uses Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) to authenticate client connections to the broker. SASL is a framework that supports a variety of authentication methods. For secure applications, we suggest <command>CRAM-MD5</command>, <command>DIGEST-MD5</command>, or <command>GSSAPI</command>. The <command>ANONYMOUS</command> method is not secure. The <command>PLAIN</command> method is secure only when used together with SSL. + </para> + <para> + Both the Qpid broker and Qpid clients use the <ulink url="http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/">Cyrus SASL library</ulink>, a full-featured authentication framework, which offers many configuration options. This section shows how to configure users for authentication with SASL, which is sufficient when using <command>SASL PLAIN</command>. If you are not using SSL, you should configure SASL to use <command>CRAM-MD5</command>, <command>DIGEST-MD5</command>, or <command>GSSAPI</command> (which provides Kerberos authentication). For information on configuring these and other options in SASL, see the Cyrus SASL documentation<!-- at <filename>/usr/share/doc/cyrus-sasl-lib-2.1.22/index.html</filename> for &RHEL5; or <filename>/usr/share/doc/cyrus-sasl-2.1.19/index.html</filename> for &RHEL4;-->. + </para> + <important> + <title>Important</title> + <para> + The <command>SASL PLAIN</command> method sends passwords in cleartext, and is vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks unless SSL (Secure Socket Layer) is also used (see <xref linkend="sect-Messaging_User_Guide-Security-Encryption_using_SSL" />). + </para> + <para> + If you are not using SSL, we recommend that you disable <command>PLAIN</command> authentication in the broker. + </para> + + </important> + <para> + The Qpid broker uses the <command>auth yes|no</command> option to determine whether to use SASL authentication.
