IBM WebSphere Application Server v7.0 Security

IBM WebSphere Application Server v7.0 Security, 9781849681483 (1849681481), Packt Publishing, 2011

IBM WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment is IBM's flagship J2EE application server platform. It implements the J2EE technology stack. This stack enables the WebSphere Application Server platform to execute the user's Java enterprise applications that perform business functions. There are several roles who use this platform such as architects, developers, and administrators, to mention a few. Within the administrator role, in turn, there are several functions such as installation, performance, security, and so on.

This book starts with an in-depth analysis of the global and administrative security features of WebSphere Application Server v7.0, followed by comprehensive coverage of user registries for user authentication and authorization information. Moving on you will build on the concepts introduced and get hands-on with a mini project. In the next chapter, you work with the different front-end architectures of WAS along with the Secure Socket Layer protocol, which offer transport layer security through data encryption.

You can learn user authentication and data encryption, which demonstrate how a clear text channel can be made safer, by using SSL transport to encrypt its data. This book will show you how to enable an enterprise application hosted in a WebSphere Application Server environment to interact with other applications, resources, and services available in a corporate infrastructure. Platform hardening, tuning parameters for tightening security, and troubleshooting are some of the aspects of WebSphere Application Server v7.0 security that are explored in the book. Every chapter builds strong security foundations, by demonstrating concepts and practicing them through the use of dynamic, web-based mini projects.
