About Symantec SiteMinder
Regardless of how a user accesses an application, the first step is the access management process is authentication, which enables the user to properly identify themselves. Therefore, the first critical capability of a modern access management technology is to be able to support any and all methods of authentication, and more importantly, be capable manage when each one is used to challenge a user. Once authenticated, the next critical capability is to manage and protect the user’s session. This capability unifies the user experience across multiple applications while simultaneously delivering single sign-on, but also ensuring that the user’s session is protected against hijacking. Additionally, as the user requests access to applications, the access management technology must be capable of performing authorization checks to determine whether the user should be granted access. A modern access management technology delivers these capabilities.
