Interface UserToken

    public interface UserToken
    extends Serializable

    Uniquely identifies an authenticated user. An instance of a SecurityAuthority will be able to create a user token from a user ID. To do so may require additional information such as passwords or other authentication details. It is the responsibility of the authority to do the authentication and only supply a token instance if the credentials are okay.
