There are two types of authentication when adding Data Sources for IBM Rational DOORS Next Generation as follows

• Login authentication through the embedded browser
  To support the secured environment with different authentications including single sign-on, the embedded browser can be used to allow you to log on directly to the DNG login page so that DataHub is able to make connections to a variety of secured servers.
