ACI Enterprise Security Services modules

ACI Enterprise Security Services: Application Firewall

Enterprise Security Services:Application Firewall (ACI Enterprise Security Services:AF) provides better security for HP NonStop resources. As more HP NonStop resources are exposed via access methods such as Web services there is a danger that legacy security controls may be circumvented. Enterprise Security Services:AF ensures that only authenticated and authorized users are able to access protected resources, regardless of how those resources are accessed, or what those resources consist of.

Enterprise Security Services:AF works in conjunction with ACI Web Access Services to provide secure XML and Web services access to Pathway, BASE24 and NonStop SQL databases.

Enterprise Security Services:AF is designed to be used by any application to ensure that its resources are adequately protected, regardless of the method being used to access those resources. The application delegates access control decisions to Enterprise Security Services, via a simple API.

ACI Enterprise Security Services: SSL

ACI Enterprise Security Services:SSL is a full NonStop implementation of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). It supports both client and server authentication, and has been implemented to secure any sockets-based application. As a result, it works with any HP NonStop application (e.g. MQSeries, Pathway iTS, FTP), and is the only SSL implementation that has been certified with ACI's BASE24 solutions, and all ACI Web Access Services.

Enterprise Security Services:SSL provides SSL and TLS capabilities on the HP NonStop server. As a full SSL implementation, it provides both SSL Client and SSL Server functionality, and each case supports authentication of the remote party’s X.509 certificate. Enterprise Security Services:SSL runs under the Guardian personality of the HP NonStop server, meaning that all sensitive data is protected right into the application environment, removing the possibility of sniffing of data within the corporate firewall.

Running as either a sockets-based proxy server, or a built-in service, Enterprise Security Services:SSL secures all TCP/IP sockets based applications, and has been tested with products such as GoldenGate, Pathway iTS and IBM WebSphere MQ. OSS-based applications are fully supported. Enterprise Security Services:SSL is also the only HP NonStop SSL solution to be fully integrated and certified with ACI’s BASE24 and XPNET products.

Enterprise Security Services:SSL also provides SFTP support which means that all sockets applications on the HP NonStop platform can now be encrypted and protected.
