eTrust Web Access Control Features

eTrust Web Access Control Features and Benefits

Feature Description Benefit
Online Content and Service Security eTrust Web Access Control is a complete solution for securing web resources and proactively preventing intrusions.

eTrust Web Access Control secures access to employee portals, and protects partner extranets and web-based supply chain management systems.

Secures online services to help ensure end users’ privacy and business information confidentiality; users can only see the web resources they are authorized to see.
Reduced Management Costs and Overhead eTrust Web Access Control delivers centralized management and reporting across large numbers of heterogeneous servers.

Additionally, it seamlessly integrates with many products in both the eTrust Identity Management and eTrust Access Management solution sets.

Reduces administration overhead and complexity through centralized management.

Pre-tested integration with other eTrust and web/portal products shortens deployment cycles and reduces maintenance costs.

Extended Authentication Methods The open design of eTrust Web Access Control allows an organization to use different authentication methods, according to its requirements. These mechanisms include PAP, LDAP authentication and high security PKI technology using smart cards. Allows organizations to determine which authentication method they use based on business needs, not technology limitations. Its modular design allows organizations to grow as technologies evolve so that current investments are protected against future technology updates.
Versatile Web Single Sign-On eTrust Web Access Control handles both internal and external web logins. Using JavaScript, eTrust Web Access Control performs automatic authentication to any external form-based websites or web applications based on authenticated user IDs and stored passwords. In addition, internal web servers can automatically share authenticated credentials across different web agents. Helps users automatically login to their websites or applications, reducing user headaches and security risks.

Minimizes the time spent for administrators to manage user passwords, and improves productivity for both end users and administrators.

Legacy System and Mainframe Integration eTrust Web Access Control leverages mainframe products, such as eTrust CA-Top Secret® Security and eTrust  CA-ACF2® Security, as its user repository via the eTrust LDAP server, combining the user database into a single trusted source.

eTrust Web Access Control can facilitate automatic sign-on to legacy web applications vi a web forms, without changing the existing application code or interface on the application side.

Eliminates the headaches and risks associated with multiple user databases, including synchronization, identity matching and trusted federation problems.

Uses the single sign-on feature of eTrust Web Access Control to immediately integrate web application access. Shortens the deployment cycle and enables fast project building since no additional program changes are needed.

Full Set of APIs (Authentication, Authorization and Administration) eTrust Web Access Control delivers authorization API function calls that can be incorporated into backend web applications. This provides a strong connection among transactional applications and member service modules. Based on authorization information, personalization can be fully incorporated into backend applications. Protects online assets (such as confidential contents, customer information or transactional data) against sophisticated hacking or espionage attempts. The Authorization API can be used for both security and business application enablement.

Alternatively, business web applications can use the authorization information to provide highly personalized, secure services. This includes multi-tiered offerings or partner/employee extranet access separation.
