Description

The Knox API Gateway functions as a reverse proxy, prioritizing flexibility in policy enforcement and backend service management for the requests it handles. It encompasses various aspects of policy enforcement, including authentication, federation, authorization, auditing, dispatch, host mapping, and content rewriting rules. A chain of providers, specified in the topology deployment descriptor associated with each Apache Hadoop cluster secured by Knox, facilitates this policy enforcement. Additionally, the cluster definition within the descriptor helps the Knox Gateway understand the structure of the cluster, enabling effective routing and translation from user-facing URLs to the internal workings of the cluster. Each secured Apache Hadoop cluster is equipped with its own REST APIs, consolidated under a unique application context path. Consequently, the Knox Gateway can safeguard numerous clusters while offering REST API consumers a unified endpoint for seamless access. This design enhances both security and usability by simplifying interactions with multiple backend services.

Description

Cloudentity enhances the speed of development, improves audit processes, and reduces risks through advanced management of fine-grained authorization policies, ensuring ongoing enforcement at the transaction level across various environments like hybrid and multi-cloud, as well as microservices. By externalizing the management of authorization, developers are empowered to efficiently generate policy-as-code, set up standardized controls, and enforce contextual access and data exchange as close to the service as feasible. This not only accelerates application delivery but also speeds up security validation by providing comprehensive data lineage for auditing, forensic investigations, and regulatory compliance. Additionally, Cloudentity offers dynamic governance for authorization that automates policy management and adapts controls to maintain a Zero Trust framework among users, applications, services, and data. The platform also automates the inventory of applications, services, and APIs while standardizing authorization policies and facilitating declarative authorization provisioning, thus optimizing the security verification process during releases. Moreover, this proactive approach to security and compliance ensures that organizations can efficiently navigate complex regulatory landscapes while maintaining operational agility.
