Web Services, Authentication, and Identity Management

14 April, 2005 - 1:48pm

Are you using an On-Demand application or are considering adopting one? Have you given thought to the security questions surrounding using a Web based application?

Digital ID World magazine has an excellent article that explores these issues in their April/May 2005 publication.

Key points they highlight are:
  • How will users be authenticated against Web services?
  • How does authorization work with Web services?
  • How will authenticated users be authorized to perform certain activities, and not others?

We now address these concerns with Sxip Access, a secure integration solution that offers Single Sign-On and centralized user management for On-Demand applications. More details are available on the Sxip Access solutions page.
