31. GemStone/J Security Architecture

32. Strong Security Reduces Risks Authentication: Authorization & Containment: Secure Communication: Security Administration: Who is accessing your data Restrictions Private exchange Control over system Secure Comm UserName { Permissionname_of_resource UserName { Permissionname_of_resource ACL

33. GemStone/J Security End-to-end Enterprise Java Security Authentication embedded in all communications Standard X.509 digital certificates Public Key Infrastructure supported Authorization built into EJB server, ORB, name services, system processes, administrative components Access Control Lists for secure resources User-, method-, code-level containment, based on industry standards, EJB, and Java 2 NA and International SSL 3.0 is supported Console tool and utilities for configuring security UserName { Permissionname_of_resource UserName { Permissionname_of_resource ACL

34. Strong Security Requires Thorough Integration AUTHENTICATION Passwords Keys Digital Signatures Message Digests Certificates (x.509) LDAP AUTHORIZATION Permissions - User - Resources - Code Containment - Sandbox - ACL - Domains - Firewalls Auditing - Error Logging - Error Reporting Non-Repudiation - Transaction logging and reporting Admin Tools - Add/modify users - Add/mod permissions - Manage certificates - Configure - Audit SECURE COMM SSL Confidentiality - Encryption - Keys SECURITY ADMINISTRATION UserName { Permissionname_of_resource UserName { Permissionname_of_resource ACL Secure Comm
