Only valid Nexus users can log into Nexus. Nexus uses iSeries APIs to validate users which are either iSeries User Profiles or Nexus User Profiles. The administrator can also set the length of time for a session to expire.

HTTP Server Extensions
(Click image to enlarge) |
Security is implemented as extensions of the iSeries HTTP servers (original or Apache), so there are no "back-door" means of circumventing security. Extensions are added by defining authority at the portlet level or by defining link protection directives to secure applications.

The Nexus site is secured by the HTTP APACHE web server. Nexus provides the APACHE configuration required for a secure site.

Portlet and ECM Authority
(Click image to enlarge) |
For any portlet or ECM content (documents and folders) you can define user or group authorities. The authorities are easy to assign with drop down options and ECM authority inheritance saves you time and provides consistent content access. These authorities are extensions of the HTTP web server.
