Github user hayssams commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/incubator-zeppelin/pull/53#issuecomment-168004206 I have just added a short [security readme](https://github.com/ebiznext/incubator-zeppelin/blob/3b276057a22c5569ea6f6cf1c5851b4aa5277e2f/Security-README.md) that may allow us to choose the best strategy in adding Shiro. Basically the two questions are : 1. Is the way we handle web socket security a good pattern 2. Would we rely on the ThreadLocal pattern or explicitly pass the username in function calls or should we use a different approach ? Once we decide how to move on, I think that we will be able to focus on the implementation details and how this PR should be split. Waiting to hear from you.
