Access Management
Access management technology is one of the key, strategic
components of any IAM strategy. Coupled with a directory
services implementation, the access control layer establishes
the core security and control foundation required for
Identity Management and Provisioning solutions.
Access control environments like Netegrity Siteminder
provide organizations with a platform independent and
secure method of delivering web-based single sign-on
(SSO) while maintaining centralized control over end-user
authentication, and authorization. Siteminder can be
extended to allow 2-tier client/server applications
to participate in the SSO infrastructure using Entryport’s
Legacy connector
suite for Netegrity Siteminder.
Leveraging its federated identity architecture, Netegrity
Siteminder provides single sign-on (SSO) across multiple
applications, portals, and organizations.
Unlike similar solutions where the security access
rules are buried within the LDAP repository in the form
of access control lists (ACL’s), Netegrity Siteminder
establishes this authentication and authorization layer
using a rules-based engine. This unique approach provides
superior flexibility, allowing organizations to:
- migrate application security access controls from
application code to configurable rules, allowing these
rules to be reused across the enterprise;
- accelerate development times by allowing application
developers to focus on writing business logic, rather
than security code;
- distribute user and application data across multiple
stores, while maintaining central management and control;
- proxy application/user access to user profile data,
ensuring privacy and security for user provide data;
- enforce consistent security rules regardless of
platform type or application language;
- provide consistently enforced password expiration,
composition, and construction rules across all applications
and portal environments;
- establish consistently enforced roles and authorization
standards across applications and portal environments;
- leverage the same standard authentication/authorization
model to secure XML transactions and web-services
using TransactionMinder;
- centralized audit and reporting across all sites,
applications and portal environments;
