10Secure Global Desktop Focus
- Flexibility
- Integrate secure application access into a
Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) - Security
- Safeguard corporate and private data by
leveraging the latest security standards - Ease of Use
- Web-enable any enterprise application for use in
a standard web browser
11Flexibility
- Web Services APIs
- An Application Programming Interface (API) is a
set of rules that define how one piece of
software communicates with another. - SGD includes a full suite of APIs that allow it
to be used as a web service. This means that
other web applications can utilize EE 4s secure
application access capability and integrate that
functionality into larger applications and
environments (portals, for example). - SGDs Web Services APIs use standard SOAP and XML
to communicate with other applications.
