Overview
IBM® WebSphere® DataPower XML Security Gateway XS40 simplifies, helps secure, and accelerates your SOA.
The XS40 is specialized hardware for Web services security and XML threat protection. This 1U (1.75" thick) rack-mountable network device is powered by unique, purpose-built technology to help your business as follows:
- Powered by XML processing technology and built from the ground up with security in mind to be a security-enforcement point for XML and Web services transactions.
- Helps provide comprehensive XML security and the wirespeed performance needed for real-world applications.
- Provides more than just an XML firewall: An XML proxy with carrier-grade features that can parse, filter, validate schema, decrypt, verify signatures, access-control, transform, sign, and encrypt XML message flows.
- Provides a security-enforcement point for XML and Web services transactions, including encryption, firewall filtering, digital signatures, schema validation, WS-Security, WS-Policy, WS-SecurityPolicy, XML access control, and XPath.
- Offers robust service level management, policy management, and Web services management support, as well as detailed logging and auditing.
- Helps enable high-performance XML Web services security. Because XS40 policies are entirely XML-based, enterprises have fine-grained control of security without being locked into a proprietary framework. This inherent agility ensures that the XS40 easily adapts to changing standards, policies, and partners for any number of applications.
