Adaptive Server version 15.7 includes end-to-end Kerberos authentication support for remote Adaptive Server connections through the component integration system (CIS).
End-to-end (CIS) Kerberos authentication allows a Kerberos V5 user logged in to Adaptive Server using Kerberos authentication to connect to a remote Adaptive Server using the Kerberos unified login authentication when:
- Requesting an RPC to the Adaptive Server
- Issuing CIS passthrough connections
- Issuing general distributed query processing requests to remote Adaptive Servers using CIS
Adaptive Server supports these optional security services for Kerberos connections to remote ASE servers using CIS:
- Message confidentiality
- Message integrity
- Mutual authentication
