TL;DR Yes, you can add digital signatures in Java even when you use newer hardware tokens such as Gemalto SafeNet eToken 5110 CC. JSignPKCS11 might help. Maybe you've seen the infamous PKCS11 error message CKR_USER_NOT_LOGGED_IN already. Thrown even when the SunPKCS11 security provider and the keystore settings were properly configured for your hardware token. java.security.ProviderException: sun.security.pkcs11.wrapper.PKCS11Exception: CKR_USER_NOT_LOGGED_IN at jdk.crypto.cryptoki/sun.security.pkcs11.P11Signature.engineSign(P11Signature.java:685) at java.base/java.security.Signature$Delegate.engineSign(Signature.java:1404) at java.base/java.security.Signature.sign(Signature.java:713) ...

WildFly application server (and JBoss EAP) supports several simple ways how to redirect the communication from plain HTTP to TLS protected HTTPs. This article presents 3 ways. Two are on the application level and the last one is on the server level valid for requests to all deployments. 1. Request confidentiality in the deployment descriptor The first way is based on the Servlet specification. You need to specify which URLs should be protected in the web.xml deployment descriptor. It's the same approach as the one used for specifying which URLs require authentication/authorization. Just instead of requesting an assigned role, you request a transport-guarantee .
