Oracle Web Services Manager

Deploy Web Services in a Secure Environment
As Web services have become a common method for integrating systems, services are now exposed to the Internet for use by customers, business partners, and partners of those partners. As a result, access control and auditing are ever more urgent requirements. To provide effective access control, the concepts of identity management and SOA management must merge. Oracle is leading this trend.

Oracle Web Services Manager is a J2EE application designed to define and implement Web services security in heterogeneous environments, provide tools to manage Web services based on service-level agreements, and allow the user to monitor runtime activity in graphical charts. Oracle Web Services Manager is delivered both as a standalone product and as part of the Oracle SOA Suite.

• Integrated Web services security—Define and enforce access control policies for Web services to prevent unauthorized access
• Rapid and simple deployment—Implement security with minimal disruption to existing applications and Web services
• Interoperable and Hot-Pluggable—Protect any Web Service regardless of the platform it resides on
