There are two aspects to securing interactions between
Unwired Platform Runtime and EIS systems.
- Device application EIS connections – Whenever a connection to the EIS is configured as an
endpoint, Sybase recommends that you use an
encrypted connection. To encrypt these connection established by an
application, configure the security settings in the connection properties or
connection templates. For details, see Security
Settings in Sybase Control Center
for Sybase Unwired Platform.
- Notification communications – Indirect injections from the EIS to the cache database must be secured.
These runtime injections are known as data change notifications (DCNs). You
must authenticate a DCN event before the transaction occurs. This chapter
documents this mechanism.
