There will
always be a need for perimeter and enterprise-wide security in SOA and
cross-firewall XML deployments, and this is the role that the latest versions
of VordelSecure, XML gateway and VordelDirector, XML security server products
from Vordel are intended to provide.
These new
products meet the requirements for both perimeter and pervasive enterprise-wide
security based on content and identity management of XML traffic. VordelDirector
delivers enterprise-wide security services that are callable as part of
an SOA. These services include XML Signature, XML Encryption, security
token issuance and validation, logging, and threat-analysis of XML. By
its nature, this architecture is scalable and meets the performance and
pervasive security requirements of large enterprises.
VordelSecure,
an XML gateway, provides a broad range of threat prevention and identity
management filters to protect Web Services. It sits as an in-line intermediary
that filters XML traffic according to a set of configurable security rules
and is available as an appliance or software solution.
Vordel claims
the products address the commercial and regulatory issues influencing
decisions on the roll out of Web Services based offerings by combating
the threat of fraudulent Web Service usage and addressing regulatory compliance
mandates. They also leverage existing security investments and apply them
to new XML based services, which should reduce the overall cost of ownership
of a security infrastructure. www.vordel.com/products
