Use this element to specify one or more Principals to map the security role on WebLogic. If you don't specify <principals>, you must deploy the application using the Advanced security model and do the Role-to-Principals mapping using the Weblogic Administration console.

When buildling a secured application, the security role must be mapped to a Principal in the application server.

You can define <principals> individually for each application module. When this element is specified as a direct child of <buildear>, it becomes the default for the nested application modules.
