Policy SDK
Extend the rich palette of SecureSpan policy assertions
Extend SecureSpan XML Gateways With a Programmable Developer Kit
The Custom Policy Assertion SDK gives developers the ability to extend Layer 7's rich, out-of-the-box palette of policy assertions in order to customize a Gateway’s functionality to accomodate specific requirements.
Custom assertions can be created for proprietary message processing, pattern recognition and filtering, as well as interfacing to third-party products, such as identity management infrastructure, network monitoring applications, or anti-virus systems – all without requiring an application server to run the custom code.
Using Java, programmers can create a Layer 7-compatible .jar file that includes all required code and/or interfaces to third-party APIs. Uploading the .jar file to a Gateway will make it available for use within the policy editor and composer as a policy assertion, which can then be incorporated into both new and existing polices as required.
