Interface AuthenticatedPrincipal

public interface AuthenticatedPrincipal
Representation of an authenticated Principal once an Authentication request has been successfully authenticated by the AuthenticationManager.authenticate(Authentication) method. Implementors typically provide their own representation of a Principal, which usually contains information describing the Principal entity, such as, first/middle/last name, address, email, phone, id, etc. This interface allows implementors to expose specific attributes of their custom representation of Principal in a generic way.
