The IBM Security Web Gateway Appliance provides access and authentication management for user to web application sessions and helps protect applications from threats.
The appliance uses WebSEAL to enable scalability and protection of the applications from invalid access and threats. WebSEAL is located between the users and the back-end application servers.
The appliance has a Local Management Interface (LMI) for administrative purposes. You can use the LMI to manage the WebSEAL instances in your environment. For more information about using the LMI, see the IBM Security Web Gateway Appliance: Administration Guide.
