OMNIACCESS 8550 WEB SERVICES GATEWAY
The Alcatel-Lucent ® OmniAccess ™ 8550 Web Services Gateway (WSG), deployed as in
Figure 1, provides reliable enterprise-wide user-centric stateful policy enforcement with
consolidated audit trails to web-enabled services, data, applications and business processes.
Once deployed, the OmniAccess 8550 WSG provides a secure application-independent
infrastructure to share web services between financial institutions and their partners
regardless if the services are local or external (outside the firewall). The benefits gained
are corporate-wide security risk management capabilities, end-to-end enterprise-class
data and identity security (encryption, digitial signing, and single identity), and stateful
(multi-transaction) run-time policy enforcement to ensure compliance with consolidated
audit trails to demonstrate compliance.

moment you open it up to the outside world….”
