  • Wwpass External Authentication Solution for IBM Security Access Manager 8.0
    WWPass External Authentication Solution for IBM Security Access Manager 8.0 Setup guide Enhance your IBM Security Access Manager for Web with the WWPass hardware authentication IBM Security Access Manager (ISAM) for Web is essentially a "reverse Web-proxy" which guards access to a number of enterprise Web services. In its basic form, users authenticate into ISAM protected resources with login / password pairs. This kind of authentication is vulnerable to multiple well-known attacks. At the same time user names and passwords are always a compromise between simplicity and security. ISAM comes with rigorous password policy, thus insisting on secure and hard to remember passwords. WWPass External Authentication Solution (EAS) provides strong hardware authentication and at the same time removes username/password pairs completely. WWPass EAS is a Web service which utilizes ISAM External Authentication Interface (EAI) and is to be installed and configured as an ISAM External Authenticator junction. -- When user authenticates at ISAM server, the request is transparently rerouted to WWPass Web application. On success, ISAM gets user DN (distinguished name) and forwards user to destination Web resource. ISAM / WWPass external authentication architecture WWPass Corporation 1 ISAM / WWPass external authentication message flow 1. User tries to access protected resource 2. ISAM WebSeal intercepts and redirects user request to WWPass authentication server. User is presented WWPass web page. 3. User clicks on "Login with WWPass" button and starts WWPass

  • Mysql Storage Engines Data in Mysql Is Stored in Files (Or Memory) Using a Variety of Different Techniques
    MySQL Storage Engines Data in MySQL is stored in files (or memory) using a variety of different techniques. Each of these techniques employs different storage mechanisms, indexing facilities, locking levels and ultimately provides a range of different functions and capabilities. By choosing a different technique you can gain additional speed or functionality benefits that will improve the overall functionality of your application. For example, if you work with a large amount of temporary data, you may want to make use of the MEMORY storage engine, which stores all of the table data in memory. Alternatively, you may want a database that supports transactions (to ensure data resilience). Each of these different techniques and suites of functionality within the MySQL system is referred to as a storage engine (also known as a table type). By default, MySQL comes with a number of different storage engines pre-configured and enabled in the MySQL server. You can select the storage engine to use on a server, database and even table basis, providing you with the maximum amount of flexibility when it comes to choosing how your information is stored, how it is indexed and what combination of performance and functionality you want to use with your data. This flexibility to choose how your data is stored and indexed is a major reason why MySQL is so popular; other database systems, including most of the commercial options, support only a single type of database storage. Unfortunately the 'one size fits all approach' in these other solutions means that either you sacrifice performance for functionality, or have to spend hours or even days finely tuning your database.
