This repository is one component of the project "Securing Internet protocols with DIDs, using SASL", see https://github.com/peacekeeper/did-based-sasl for an overview and list of all components.
This repository contains demonstration components to illustrate the use of the Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) on the client side. It uses the Java SASL API and shows the use of two SASL authentication mechanisms:
- The more traditional
CRAM-MD5mechanism, specified by RFC2195. - The DID-based
DID-CHALLENGEmechanism, described and implemented in https://github.com/peacekeeper/java-sasl-did-mechanism.
In both cases, an implementation of a callback handler is also provided, to simulate the interaction between SASL and a host protocol:
This component is used as the client side in the SASL local "Hello World" demonstration, see https://github.com/peacekeeper/java-sasl-local-demo.
