Depending upon the security mechanism you choose, Adaptive Server allows you to use one or more of these security services:
Unified login – authenticates users once without requiring them to supply a name and password every time they log in to an Adaptive Server.
Message confidentiality – encrypts data over the network.
Mutual authentication – verifies the identity of the client and the server. This must be requested by the client and cannot be required by Adaptive Server.
Message integrity – verifies that data communications have not been modified.
Replay detection – verifies that data has not been intercepted by an intruder.
Out-of-sequence check – verifies the order of data communications.
Message origin checks – verifies the origin of the message.
Remote procedure security – establishes mutual authentication, message confidentiality, and message integrity for remote procedure communications.
The security mechanism you are using may not all of
these services. For information about what services are available
to you, see “Getting information about available security services”.
