SolAce Secure Wire Features |
 |
SolAce Secure Wire has features that are found in a variety of product categories,
including secure Internet EDI, web portal, enterprise application
integration (EAI), and EDI gateway products. It is more than a secure
messaging tool, it is a system intended to make messaging and EDI
transparent to the user so the more important details of handling
HIPAA transactions can be attended to. It provides secure, web-based
mailbox access, timed and triggered adapters for real-time data
processing, and plug-in protocol, crypto, and logging capabilities.
The feature set will evolve and stabilize as more people implement
the product in their environments.

| Secure Transport Features |
|
You
can use SolAce Secure Wire's own robust, secure, and high-reliability
messaging bus for sending and receiving messages, or use our
plug in protocol design to add standards-based alternatives
such as SOAP web services, message queues, ebXML, EDI-INT,
GISB, etc. This transport-independent approach lets you preserve
your investment in existing messaging infrastructures while
taking advantage of SolAce Secure Wire's unique strengths and open
design in enabling business process integration.
SolAce Secure Wire's messaging bus provides the following benefits.
|
| Data
Compression |
All
messages are compressed using Zip-compatible lossless data compression
to maximum performance under slow network links. |
| Encryption |
Public/private
key encryption using the ultra-secure Blowfish cipher and RSA
signatures ensures the recipient is the only one who can decrypt
the message. Use our custom implementation for a Java-only environment,
or plug in PGP or GnuPG adapters to produce messages that are
compatible with other gateways. |
| Digital
Signatures |
Each
message is digitally signed by the sender to ensure the message
is not corrupted or tampered with, and to provide verification
to the receiver that the message is in fact from the sender. |
| Signed
Receipts |
Message
delivery is ultra-reliable because a receipt that is digitally
signed by the receiver is returned to the sender as confirmation.
In other words, the sender has tamperproof evidence from the
receiver that the message was delivered. You'll never lose another
message. |
| System
Security |
Built-in
security features significantly reduce the chance of malicious
attacks succeeding against your systems. Denial of service,
replay attacks, man-in-the-middle, etc. are all thwarted by
a protocol designed to be ultra-secure. |
| Multiple
Topologies |
Supports
point-to-point, hub-and-spoke, and manual web-based mailboxes.
Use SolAce Secure Wire adapters to implement relays or claims routing
servers, what we like to call shadow points. |
| DMZ-free |
You
can implement an excellent DMZ security proxy for SolAce Secure Wire
using the Apache HTTPD server with three lines added to the
configuration file. If you have plaintext data or private keys
in your DMZ, you should really reconsider your environment. |
| EDI Transaction Processing Features |
| PostOffice
and Mailbox concepts keep your trading partner relationships
straightforward and easy to manage. Each SolAce Secure Wire host
has a PostOffice that the owner manages. That PostOffice has
multiple Mailboxes which represent the trading partner relationships.
Each mailbox is managed separately so data and audit trails
are easy to use. |
| Timed
Adapters |
Adapters
at the PostOffice level run on timed intervals to provide easy
integration of batch processing. |
| Triggered
Adapters |
Adapters
at the Mailbox level are triggered whenever messaging activity
is taking place, to provide real-time handling of trading partner
data. |
| EDI
Processors |
Included
in the package are open source EDI reader/writer Java classes
that can be used to automate processing or generation of EDI
transactions to do business process integration with your back-end
systems. |
| Audit Log |
An audit log is maintained for each Mailbox in
the system, as well as at the PostOffice level. |
