Oracle Access Management suite launched

REDWOOD SHORES, USA: Further delivering its vision for application-centric identity, Oracle unveiled Oracle Access Management Suite, the industry's first and only comprehensive offering for next generation access management.

The Oracle Access Management Suite is the only solution offering next-generation technologies that enable risk-based authentication, proactive online fraud prevention, and fine-grained authorisation, as well as best-of-breed functionality including web access management and identity federation.

The company also announced general availability of the new Oracle Entitlements Server, a fine-grained authorization solution and a key component of the suite. Oracle is the first major identity management vendor to offer this capability.

Oracle Entitlements Server (previously BEA AquaLogic Enterprise Security) enables application developers to externalize and centralize fine-grained authorisation policies that would previously have been embedded within applications.

The Oracle Access Management Suite is certified to work with Oracle Applications: E-Business Suite, PeopleSoft, JD Edwards, Siebel and Oracle's Industry Applications -- and a broad range of leading non-Oracle applications.

The Oracle Access Management Suite is the first of a number of products that combines technology from Oracle Fusion Middleware and BEA Systems. Its introduction illustrates the rapid progress that Oracle is making in combining market-leading technologies from the two companies into a unified product offering.

Integrated, next generation access management



In addition to integration with Oracle Fusion Middleware, the Oracle Access Management Suite includes native integration and support for a broad range of middleware from other vendors. Enabling superior security and ease of deployment, the Oracle Access Management Suite is hot-pluggable with leading applications and platforms, including deep integration with Oracle's PeopleSoft, Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle's Siebel, and Oracle's JD Edwards.

The integrated offering provides the following benefits in a single solution:



SSO, authentication and authorization management for web-based applications.

Strong authentication and real-time proactive fraud prevention to protect against identity theft and insider risks.

Standards-based cross enterprise SSO and federation.

Fine-grained access control within applications based on user entitlements.
