In today&#8217;s environment, applications are frequent targets for attacks and vulnerabilities. Therefore, being able to restrict access to your application is essential for your business&#8217;s security.<br \/>\nIn this article, we&#8217;ll show you how to safeguard your application running on a Tomcat server on AccuWeb.Cloud. We recommend two effective methods to restrict access to your application. You can choose one or implement both:<\/p>\n<ol class=\"ack-ol\">\n<li><a class=\"ack-link-color\" href=\"#authentication\">Request user authentication<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a class=\"ack-link-color\" href=\"#IP-addresses\">Block specified IP addresses<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p id=\"authentication\">configuring authentication settings, you can define multiple users and assign them different levels of access through roles.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, if you notice any suspicious activity from specific IP addresses, you can block those IPs to safeguard your application.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s walk through the necessary configuration steps to enhance your application&#8217;s security.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"ack-h2\">Authentication<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Step 1.<\/strong> To set up <strong>user authentication<\/strong> for accessing your <strong>Tomcat-based<\/strong> web application, follow these steps:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2. <\/strong>Navigate to the environment where your application is deployed and click the <a class=\"ack-link-color\" href=\"https:\/\/accuweb.cloud\/resource\/articles\/configuration-of-file-manager\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Config<\/a> button for your Tomcat server.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3. <\/strong>Open the <strong>opt\/tomcat\/conf\/<\/strong> folder and select the <strong>tomcat-users.xml<\/strong> file.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 4. <\/strong>Add new users with the necessary credentials and roles, then <strong>save<\/strong> the changes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For example:<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"article-space\"><\/div>\n<pre><code class=\"language-javascript\">\r\n&lt;user username=\"test\" password=\"test\" roles=\"admin\"\/&gt;\r\n&lt;user username=\"test1\" password=\"test1\" roles=\"user\"\/&gt;<\/code><\/pre>\n<div class=\"article-extra-space\"><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/accuweb.cloud\/resource\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Authentication.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"ack-article-image aligncenter wp-image-46403 size-full\" title=\"Authentication\" src=\"https:\/\/accuweb.cloud\/resource\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Authentication.png\" alt=\"Authentication\" width=\"870\" height=\"284\" srcset=\"https:\/\/accuweb.cloud\/resource\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Authentication.png 870w, https:\/\/accuweb.cloud\/resource\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Authentication-300x98.png 300w, https:\/\/accuweb.cloud\/resource\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Authentication-768x251.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Open the <strong>web.xml<\/strong> file in the same folder and add the security constraints for the new user.<\/p>\n<pre><code class=\"language-javascript\">\r\n&lt;security-constraint&gt;\r\n&lt;web-resource-collection&gt;\r\n&lt;url-pattern&gt;\/*&lt;\/url-pattern&gt;\r\n&lt;\/web-resource-collection&gt;\r\n&lt;auth-constraint&gt;\r\n&lt;role-name&gt;admin&lt;\/role-name&gt;\r\n&lt;role-name&gt;user&lt;\/role-name&gt;\r\n&lt;\/auth-constraint&gt;\r\n&lt;\/security-constraint&gt;\r\n&lt;login-config&gt;\r\n&lt;auth-method&gt;BASIC&lt;\/auth-method&gt;\r\n&lt;realm-name&gt;Test Realm&lt;\/realm-name&gt;\r\n&lt;\/login-config&gt;<\/code><\/pre>\n<div class=\"article-extra-space\"><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/accuweb.cloud\/resource\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Add-the-Security-Constraints-1.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ack-article-image aligncenter wp-image-46413 size-full\" title=\"Add the Security Constraints\" src=\"https:\/\/accuweb.cloud\/resource\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Add-the-Security-Constraints-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"775\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/accuweb.cloud\/resource\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Add-the-Security-Constraints-1.png 775w, https:\/\/accuweb.cloud\/resource\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Add-the-Security-Constraints-1-300x97.png 300w, https:\/\/accuweb.cloud\/resource\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Add-the-Security-Constraints-1-768x248.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 5.
