Security API Features

Sybase Unwired Platform includes a Security API that enables users to develop a custom authentication or authorization provider.

Sybase Unwired Platform delegates the functions of storing and maintaining users and access control rules to the enterprise’s existing security solutions. It uses a plug-in model to delegate the security checks to the configured providers using the CSI component.

CSI has a service provider plug-in model that integrates with the customer’s existing security infrastructure. If none of the default providers shipped with Sybase Unwired Platform meet the security needs, you can use the Security API to implement a custom login module, authorizer, or attributer that interfaces with a security back-end of your choice and plug it into Sybase Unwired Platform.
