## com.tangosol.net.security
Interface AccessController

All Known Implementing Classes:
  DefaultController

    public interface AccessController

The AccessController interface is used by the cluster services to verify whether or not a caller has sufficient rights to access protected clustered resources.

The implementing class is declared by the "security-config/access-controller" element in the tangosol-coherence.xml configuration descriptor and used to control access to protected clustered resources.

Since:
  Coherence 2.5
Author:
  gg 2004.05.28

Method Summary
`void` | `checkPermission(ClusterPermission permission, javax.security.auth.Subject subject)` Determine whether the cluster access request indicated by the specified permission should be allowed or denied for a given Subject (requestor).
`java.lang.Object` | `decrypt(java.security.SignedObject so, javax.security.auth.Subject subjEncryptor, javax.security.auth.Subject subjDecryptor)` Decrypt the specified SignedObject using the public credentials for a given encryptor Subject in a context represented by the decryptor Subject which is usually assosiated with the current thread.
`java.security.SignedObject` | `encrypt(java.lang.Object o, javax.security.auth.Subject subjEncryptor)` Encrypt the specified object using the private credentials for the given Subject (encryptor), which is usually assosiated with the current thread.

Method Detail

### checkPermission

    void checkPermission(ClusterPermission permission,
                         javax.security.auth.Subject subject)

  Determine whether the cluster access request indicated by the specified permission should be allowed or denied for a given Subject (requestor).

  This method quietly returns if the access request is permitted, or throws a suitable AccessControlException if the specified authentication is invalid or insufficient.

  Parameters:
    `permission` - the permission object that represents access to a clustered resource
    `subject` - the Subject object representing the requestor
  Throws:
    `java.security.AccessControlException` - if the specified permission is not permitted, based on the current security policy

### encrypt

    java.security.SignedObject encrypt(java.lang.Object o,
                                       javax.security.auth.Subject subjEncryptor)
                                       throws java.io.IOException,
                                              java.security.GeneralSecurityException

  Encrypt the specified object using the private credentials for the given Subject (encryptor), which is usually assosiated with the current thread.

  Parameters:
    `o` - the Object to encrypt
    `subjEncryptor` - the Subject object whose credentials are being used to do the encryption
  Returns:
    the SignedObject
  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException` - if an error occurs during serialization
    `java.security.GeneralSecurityException` - if the signing fails

### decrypt

    java.lang.Object decrypt(java.security.SignedObject so,
                             javax.security.auth.Subject subjEncryptor,
                             javax.security.auth.Subject subjDecryptor)
                             throws java.lang.ClassNotFoundException,
                                    java.io.IOException,
                                    java.security.GeneralSecurityException

  Decrypt the specified SignedObject using the public credentials for a given encryptor Subject in a context represented by the decryptor Subject which is usually assosiated with the current thread.

  Note: the encryptor Subject usually represents a remote called and comes without any private credentials. Moreover, even the public credentials it provides may not be fully trusted and have to be verified as matching to the set of the encryptor's principals.

  Parameters:
    `so` - the SignedObject to decrypt
    `subjEncryptor` - the Subject object whose credentials were used to do the encryption
    `subjDecryptor` - the Subject object whose credentials might be used to do the decryption; for example, in a request/response model, the decryptor for a response is the encryptor for the original request
  Returns:
    the decrypted Object
  Throws:
    `java.lang.ClassNotFoundException` - if a necessary class cannot be found during deserialization
    `java.io.IOException` - if an error occurs during deserialization
    `java.security.GeneralSecurityException` - if the verification fails
