Security Framework

• See geoserver.org for Christian's Master Thesis o  Flexible authentication for stateless web services

• Why use GeoServer Security? o Don't list layers in GetCapabilities that cannot be used o  Layer name/description may be sensitive information

• Core Feature of GeoServer Web Services o Deep Integration with Web Services o  Fine grain control of Services and REST API access
