1 Supported Integrations

This chapter contains a brief introduction to the deployment integration options and the feature integration options available in Oracle Adaptive Access Manager.

1.1 Integration Deployment Options

All the integration deployment options are listed below. For detailed information, please refer to the chapters in this guide.

Native and Web Services Integration

The web application communicates with Adaptive Risk Manager Online using the Adaptive Risk Manager Online Native Client API or through Web Services.

For an introduction to API integration, refer to Chapter 2, "API Integration."

For information on native and web services integration, refer to Chapter 3, "Native Integration .net," and Chapter 4, "Native Integration Java."

Static Linked Integration

Most of the native API are wrappers over the SOAP API that is published by the Adaptive Risk Manager Online Server and written in the client's native application language. The static-linked integration is another option available for integrations using Java language. There will be no SOAP calls to Adaptive Risk Manager in this option; instead the API implementation runs within the client application itself.

For an introduction to API integration, refer to Chapter 2, "API Integration."

For information on static linked integration, refer to Chapter 4, "Native Integration Java."

Universal Installation Option Integration

Oracle Adaptive Access Manager's Universal Installation Option (UIO) is a proxy-based deployment of Adaptive Risk Manager and Adaptive Strong Authenticator that requires little or no integration with client web applications.

A proxy intercepts site traffic and routes it through Adaptive Risk Manager Online for Strong Authentication.

For information on the integration of the Oracle Adaptive Access Manager's Installation Option, refer to the following chapters:

Oracle Access Manager

Oracle Adaptive Access Manager is integrated with Oracle Access Manager to allow Adaptive Strong Authenticator's authentication pads to identify users attempting to access Oracle Access Manager's protected applications.

For information on integrating Oracle Adaptive Access Manager with Oracle Access Manager, refer to Chapter 8, "Oracle Access Manager Integration."

1.2 Features Integration Options

The available features integration options are documented below.

Auto-learning

Auto-learning is a set of features that perform adaptive evaluations of risk.

For information on how to integrate it with Adaptive Risk Manager, refer to Chapter 9, "Auto-learning."

Configurable Actions

Oracle Adaptive Access Manager provides Configurable Actions, a feature which allows users to create new supplementary actions that are triggered based on the result action and/or based on the risk scoring after a Runtime execution.

For information on how to add a Configurable Action and integrate it with the Adaptive Risk Manager software, refer to Chapter 10, "Configurable Actions."

Cases

The expiry/overdue behavior can be configured for cases.

For information on how to change the default behavior, refer to Chapter 11, "Configuring Expiry/Overdue for Cases."
