Jakarta Authentication defines a general low-level SPI for authentication mechanisms, which are controllers
that interact with a caller and a container's environment to obtain the caller's credentials, validate these,
and pass an authenticated identity (such as name and groups) to the container.
Jakarta Authentication consists of several profiles, with each profile telling how a specific container
(such as Jakarta Servlet) can integrate with- and adapt to this SPI.
Jakarta Authentication - Callbacks
This package defines callback interfaces that may be used by a pluggable authentication mechanisms (aka message authentication modules)
to interact with the container (aka message processing runtime) that invoked the module.
