/**
* Strategy used to handle a failed authentication attempt.
*
* Typical behaviour might be to redirect the user to the authentication page (in the case
* of a form login) to allow them to try again. More sophisticated logic might be
* implemented depending on the type of the exception. For example, a
* {@link CredentialsExpiredException} might cause a redirect to a web controller which
* allowed the user to change their password.
