Gatekeeper Functions (Authentication & Authorization)
- Robust user ID and authentication: Establishes specific user-identity within the SBX environment
- Comprehensive Role-Based user administration: Establishes specific role within the SBX environment
- Integration with Active Directory using LDAP reduces administrative overheads and facilitates Single Sign On technologies
SBX authentication results in comprehensive, fine-grained authorization that establishes user access privileges to specific functions and data.
Information Asset Architecture Functions (Metadata)
- SBX Enigma™ Metadata can describe Enterprise information assets & systems: Data, File Types, Services, Applications, Servers, etc.
- SBX Enigma™ Metadata can associate access constraints to all components in the architecture: Comprehensive access control at the Metadata-layer is established
Upon request, SBX Enigma™ provides knowledge of the access constraints to Enterprise services & applications.
Need-To-Know Access Functions (Data Element Controls)
- SBX Enigma™ enables data element-level access control: Combinations of Words, Numbers, Symbols, etc. – anything that may hold meaning
- Each discrete data element has its own discrete Access Control List (ACL), therefore becoming its own Virtual Lockbox: Each Lockbox requires appropriate Role and User authorities before granting access to its content
Data element functions provide exceptional fine-grained access control which, when combined with SBX Metadata access functions, create a comprehensive, pervasive Need-To-Know managed access environment.
Oversight Functions (Audit)
SBX Enigma™ provides real-time, centralized tracking of Enterprise resource usage
- Mandatory SBX Administrative Audit of all administrative activities
- Optional fine-grained Custom Audit of all SBX API interactions with Client services and applications
- Non-SBX Audit provides for centralized and standardized Enterprise audit as a no-friction complement to existing application-specific audits
