You don't need to do anything with regard to the HTTP session. The servletcontainer will create and manage it for you whenever the application requires so (e.g. whenever you're using a session scoped managed bean in JSF).

JSF doesn't offer builtin facilities to handle authentication. There are several options:

1. Homegrow it yourself. On login set the logged-in User as a property of a session scoped managed bean and let your application intercept on that.

2. Use the Servlet API provided container managed authentication in combination with a wrapper managed bean.
