That depends on what you mean by security context.

WebLogic requires proxying to front-end with Apache, and that limits the
options to request headers. Better containers like Jetty or Tomcat support
request tunnelling with AJP and can handle alternatives with better
security properties.

That is highly platform specific and there are many pages in the wiki
about it. The Apache material is at
