News Facts

Building on Oracle’s commitment to simplify application security, Oracle today announced Oracle Entitlements Server 11g.

A key component of Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g, Oracle Entitlements Server 11g delivers a highly scalable, externalized authorization management solution for applications, middleware and databases and provides developers with shared services for fine-grained authorization to ensure quicker compliance and better business agility as policies can be quickly adapted as market, regulatory and business requirements change.

By externalizing authorizations and entitlements from applications, Oracle Entitlements Server 11g helps organizations centrally manage entitlements, provide a central view of access rights across applications in the enterprise and audit applications to track application access and use. When authorizations are externalized to a shared service, organizations can easily extend these benefits to both on-premise and private cloud applications.

Underscoring Oracle’s goal to deliver Service-Oriented Security, Oracle Entitlements Server 11g is integrated with Oracle Platform Security Services, the underlying security foundation for Oracle Fusion Middleware and Oracle Fusion Applications. With this integration, Oracle Entitlements Server becomes the strategic authorization solution for Oracle Fusion Middleware and Oracle Fusion Applications.

This latest release also extends Oracle’s comprehensive support for modern security standards including XACML, NIST RBAC, Enterprise RBAC, ABAC, OpenAZ and JAAS to provide greater customer choice and flexibility when it comes to enforcing granular security policies on the basis of user roles, run-time attributes or context-aware conditions.
