4.3. About Authenticator Valves
An authenticator valve is a valve that authenticates the credentials of a request. Such valve is a sub-class of
org.apache.catalina.authenticator.AuthenticatorBase and overrides the authenticate(Request request, Response response, LoginConfig config) method.
This can be used to implement additional authentication schemes.
