The application server must authenticate users individually prior to using a group authenticator.
Description
Discussion Text
To ensure individual accountability and prevent unauthorized access, application server users (and any processes acting on behalf of application server users) must be individually identified and authenticated.
A group authenticator is a generic account used by multiple individuals. Use of a group authenticator alone does not uniquely identify individual users.
Application servers must ensure individual users are authenticated prior to authenticating via role or group authentication. This is to ensure that there is nonrepudiation for actions taken.
