Deploy for auditing and proxying
A PingAccess deployment for auditing and proxying enables an organization to quickly set up an environment that provides a secure method of controlling access to backend sites.
With growing numbers of internal and external users, you need to know which users are accessing applications, where and when they are accessing them, and ensuring that they are correctly accessing only the applications to which they have permission. A standardized auditing and proxying deployment provides a centrally-controlled model that enforces existing infrastructure and security policies, safeguarding an organization’s assets.
At the perimeter of a protected network, between mobile, in-browser, or server-based client applications and backend sites, PingAccess performs the following actions:
-
PingAccess receives inbound calls requesting access to protected backend sites.
-
PingAccess audits the request and then makes authorized requests to the backend sites.
-
PingAccess receives and processes responses and relays them to the clients.
The following sections describe sample proof of concept and production architectures for an auditing and proxying use case deployment:
