The Security tab includes the following authentication options and values:

Option	Description
Username	Specify the user name required to access the Active MQ or IBM MQ server.
Password	Specify the password associated with the user name.

Password

Specify the password associated with the user name.

Use secure protocol

Select to secure the message stream with the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. You can adjust the settings of the protocol through the SSL properties table.

This security protocol setting is used only on the Pentaho engine. It not used on the AEL Spark engine.

The following SSL values are available, depending on whether you use ActiveMQ or IBM MQ as the connection method for the step:

Name	Value
Ciphersuite	Specify a CipherSuite name. Values depend on the provider. For more details, see: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/security/SunProviders.html
Context Algorithm	Specify the name of the secure protocol you are using.
FIPS required	IBM MQ only: Specify `True` to enable support for the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS). Specify `False` if FIPS is not required.
Key Store Password	Specify the password for the key store object you want this secure connection to use.
Key Store Path	Specify the file path location of the key store you want this secure connection to use.
Key Store Type	IBM MQ only: Specify the format of the key store.
SSL Provider	Active MQ only: Specify the SSL implementation you want to use, either JDK or OpenSSL. If you specify OpenSSL, you will need to provide the OpenSSL libraries. For details, see the ActiveMQ documentation: https://activemq.apache.org/artemis/docs/latest/configuring-transports.html
Trust Store Password	IBM MQ only: Specify the password for the trust store object you want this secure connection to use.
Trust All	Active MQ only: Specify either `True` or `False`. `False` is recommended. Specify `True` if you want this connection to trust all certificates without validation. `True` is not recommended for production use.
Trust Store Path	Specify the file path location of the trust store certificates you want this secure connection to use.
Trust Store Type	IBM MQ only: Specify the format of the trust store.
Verify Host	Active MQ only: Specify `True` if you want this secure connection to verify that the host server name matches its certificate. Specify `False` to omit host verification.
