In order to leverage existing systems and maximize business efficiencies, many enterprises have already moved to Service Oriented Architectures (SOA). These models—implemented in platform-independent, heterogeneous IT environments— use loosely connected services that communicate with each other to execute business processes (e.g., ordering, processing, billing and shipping an online purchase). Using standard protocols, developers can interconnect these services to link applications and allow them to work with each other seamlessly.

Lighthouse’s SOA Security Services provide enterprise security solutions for these complex, machine-to-machine interfaces within modern SOA enterprises. Our Service Oriented Architecture services allow for integration of Identity Management and Access Management solutions within SOA interfaces, such as policy enforcement for web services, Java Message Service (JMS), or WebSphere MQ ESB end-points. These services can integrate into existing Identity/Access Management infrastructures, allowing IT security policies to be extended in support of modern machine-to-machine web-based protocols.
