Overview

BEA AquaLogic Enterprise Security includes a set of components named Security Service Modules (SSMs). The following SSMs are available in this release of AquaLogic Enterprise Security:

Each Security Service Module ties the protected resources of its underlying application into the AquaLogic Enterprise Security Administration Server so that all administrative security activities are performed through the Administration Sever. The Administration Server with the Security Service Module add-on supports enterprise-level security by making security for applications an integral part of the enterprise policy.
