ABSTRACT:

Companies using IBM Lotus application typically have several different passwords to access Domino HTTP sessions such as Lotus Domino Web Access (“iNotes”), Sametime, QuickPlace, and Domino Web applications. These companies need a strong and secure authentication method that is:

Simple to execute
Allows end-users to authenticate from a browser; and
Does not require a complicated client installation.

One such method is the Kerberos network authentication protocol, the preferred authentication mechanism in Microsoft Windows and Active Directory. Because of its openness, Kerberos can be utilized to create single sign-on network environments. Kerberos is also more secure than other authentication methods because it does not send plain text passwords over the network and instead uses encrypted tickets.

This white paper discusses the workings and benefits of Kerberos, focusing on its single sign-on capabilities, its multi-pronged security, and its ease of use. The Kerberos authentication method delivers huge benefits for both end-users and administrators, and contributes to improving overall security.
