A SiteMinder Policy Server provides advanced authentication and protection for your CA IdentityMinder environment. The following figure is an example of a CA IdentityMinder installation with a SiteMinder Policy Server:
A CA IdentityMinder implementation that includes SiteMinder includes all of the components of the basic installation or the installation with provisioning, plus these additional components:
Works with the SiteMinder Policy Server to protect the User Console. The Web Agent is installed on the system with the CA IdentityMinder Server.
Provides advanced authentication and authorization for CA IdentityMinder, and other functionality such as Password Services and Single-Sign On.
Enables a SiteMinder Policy Server to support CA IdentityMinder. Install the extensions on each SiteMinder Policy Server system in your CA IdentityMinder implementation.
Stores information that SiteMinder needs to manage access to Web resources.
When CA IdentityMinder integrates with SiteMinder, the policy store also includes information about CA IdentityMinder directories and environments so that SiteMinder can provide advanced authentication.
Note: The components are installed on different platforms as examples. However, you can choose other platforms. The CA IdentityMinder databases are on Microsoft SQL Server and the user store is on IBM directory Server. The SiteMinder Policy Store is on AD LDS on Windows.
