Entegrity Continues to Enhance Web and Application Server Security

AssureAccess is the First to Integrate With New BEA WebLogic Security Framework

SAN JOSE, Calif. – July 23, 2002 - Entegrity Solutions®, a leader in application security, today announced that its new generation of AssureAccess® is the first access management product to implement the new BEA WebLogic Server 7.0™ Security Service Provider Interfaces (SSPIs) and full SAML support to the BEA WebLogic Platform 7.0™.

AssureAccess access management software protects J2EE-based Web sites, Portals and Web services built using application servers like BEA WebLogic Server. AssureAccess services include authentication, single-sign-on, authorization, audit, user management, and security policy administration. With WebLogic Server 7.0, BEA completely redesigned the security framework of the world's leading application server, offering a level of flexibility and control not available in any other application server. The new BEA security framework separates application development from application security management, freeing developers to focus on implementing business logic, and leaving security to specialized solution providers like Entegrity® and the AssureAccess product.

“The new BEA security framework is a major step forward for our customers, software vendors, and solution integrators,” said Paul Patrick, security architect, BEA Systems, Inc. “It puts security control firmly in the hands of administrators, provides businesses the power to make authorization decisions based on real-time information generated by their applications, and gives companies the freedom of an open, vendor-neutral security framework. Entegrity can tightly integrate AssureAccess with WebLogic Server because we are both committed to Java and we have worked together during the development of the BEA SSPI specification. This cooperation will continue to deliver benefits in future releases of our products.”

“Early on, the focus in the Web access management market was on security-related functionality. The primary focus of both Entegrity’s customers and solution integrators has shifted to application development schedules, costs, and profitability. This is the area where our AssureAccess solution excels and through superior product design, we intend it to remain the benchmark for low security integration costs,” said Dave Martin, Entegrity chairman, president, and CEO. “Our early support for the new BEA SSPI and development of other unique AssureAccess integration capabilities demonstrate both our commitment and capability to sustain a leadership position. BEA has already trained its top 50 Systems Engineers on the AssureAccess—WebLogic solution. That’s a strong endorsement of our product and strategy.”
