Managing web access

Managing web access involves the management of network connections to protected web resources within your company.

Web access overview
You manage web access by creating and managing network connections to protected web resources. You also control access to protected resources by creating authorization policies. Authorization policies include Access Control Lists (ACLs), Protected Object Policies (POPs), and a global user policy.
Searching for web application connections
You can search for network connections to protected web applications to view, modify, or remove the connection.
Creating web connections
A connection represents the logical connection from a Cloud Identity Service web-proxy server to endpoints on a client application server or servers. Multiple server connections can be added to a connection.
Adding a connection server
The connection server addresses, paths, and ports to be set up for the connection.
Creating Protected Object Policies
You use Protected Object Policies (POPs) to qualify access requirements. You can use time of day and network location to qualify access requirements.
Creating Access Control Lists
An Access Control List (ACL) provides a mapping between a user, groups, and services and a set of permissions. You can create new ACLs to grant users, group members, and service members access to a protected resource.
Creating protected objects
Protected objects represent the logical path elements that are made accessible via a connection.
