            Bug ID: 63493
           Summary: enhancement - add JMX counters to monitor
                    authentication and authorization
           Product: Tomcat 9
           Version: 9.0.x
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
          Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
          Reporter: eugene.ad...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: -----

As security monitoring becomes more professional (use of SIEM platforms) I
would like to give Tomcat some useful output.

We can easily monitor the authentication (success vs failure), and the
authorization (403 codes for any reason - after several authentication
failures, restricted system permissions, wrong client certificate,..)

This data could be exported as counters through JMX : number of succeeded
authentications, number of failed authentications, number denied
authorizations. It's up to the monitoring tool to compare with the total
traffic if it wants to have percentage values or guess if an attack in ongoing,
and it can achieve this with the help of other counters already implemented
(number of requests).
