Understanding Security › Choosing a Security System

Choosing a Security System

From the options available, which is the best choice for you? This depends on:

• Whether you are running your product region for production or testing purposes
• How specific or stringent your security requirements are

Recommended Options

We recommend the following options to suit different requirements:

• For a product region used for production—we recommend use of the NMSAF solution. You can implement this solution with minimal work. It provides a comprehensive set of facilities that make administration of security for your product region straightforward.
• For a product region used for testing—you can use NMSAF. However, in some cases, just using UAMS may be sufficient (for example, if the product region is used by only one or two people).
• If you have specific or very stringent requirements—you may need to consider writing your own partial or full security exit. This is not a trivial task.

Note: The NMSAF solution has flexibility, and may be able to meet all or most of your needs.
