Reflection for the Web, Unisys Edition: Security Focus

Reflection for the Web, Unisys Edition offers users a rich set of multiple security features. In addition to strong authentication and encryption capabilities, it includes a Security Proxy Server with Secure Token Authorization. This unique, patent-pending feature provides an extra layer of protection for connections to legacy host applications, allowing the integration of hosts into modern security infrastructures.

Attachmate customer Companhia de Saneamento Basico do Estado de Sao Paulo (SABESP), the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil's basic sanitation company and one of the world's largest water and sewage service providers, has already realized the security benefits of Reflection for the Web software's secure encryption and authentication technology.

"Reflection for the Web provides us with the client-side encryption and authentication technology we need to securely connect our end users to our Unisys applications via the Web, ensuring the integrity of our mission-critical data," said Luis Eduardo Zuffo, TI systems engineer, SABESP. "And, because we didn't have to physically install the client components on each terminal, we were able to implement the solution in a very short time, saving us considerable time and money."

With the launch of Reflection for the Web, Unisys Edition users will:

* Meet regulatory requirements, such as Payment Card Industry (PCI), Sarbanes-Oxley, Gramm-Leach-Bliley, FIPS, HIPAA and European Data Directive.

* Authenticate users via Directory Services, X.509 smart cards, Kerberos, and CA Siteminder.

* Provide standards-based security for business applications and file transfers.

* Support existing Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), including X.509 certificates, Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP), and Certificate Revocation Lists (CRL).

* Provide secure access via all major Web browsers, including Internet Explorer, Netscape, Opera, Mozilla Firefox and Safari.
