Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I’m not using it currently but as I already have worked and supported the product, it has good capabilities and main advantage is it can be deployed in all complex and critical scenarios. Webseal Junctions, advanced authentication helps most.

Pros and Cons

Adaptive access
Access management
Access control policies

It can be little lightweight in terms of features provided. Some solutions might not need those many features and that will help customer in terms of cost as well.
A little complex to implement

Return on Investment

Very much secured to the business as it provides granular level of configuration as far as authentication and authorization is concerned.
Works as a reverse Proxy so totally hides the backend application from anonymous access
It needs professional to install and manage it. It takes time to implement right set of policies but once setup as per requirement it will do its job

Support Rating

I have worked as IBM security L2 technical Support Engineer in the past so I’m very well aware about the process being followed at IBM support. For Sev1 PMRs the response time is very quick and support engineer will definitely provide the recommendations and or info on how to collect the logs for further troubleshooting.
