BEA AquaLogic Enterprise Security(ALES) 2.2 Released

BEA AquaLogic Enterprise Security supports a variety of Security Service Modules (SSMs) that reside in the application environments protected by ALES. They provide the runtime enforcement of entitlements and integrate with the underlying security framework to provide services for authentication, auditing, role mapping, and credential mapping. The security framework also provides a simple application programming interface (API) that can be used by security and application developers to define security policies and services. SSMs are provided for the WebLogic Platform, Apache and IIS Web servers, Java applications, and non-Java applications through a generic Web Services SSM. All supported SSMs for a given operating system are included in a single download file.

AquaLogic Enterprise Security Administration Application
The ALES Administration Application provides centralized management of application entitlements, letting you control all of your security policies and configuration data from a single web-based console. Configuration, security policy, and user metadata for ALES-distributed Security Services Modules are managed and provisioned by the Administration Application. All administrative functions, including delegation, are fully configurable through administrative policies.
