Axiomatics Policy Server
The Axiomatics Policy Server (APS) is a powerful access control system that allows users to manage, simulate and enforce fine-grained policies written in the eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML).
APS implements XACML2.0 and 3.0, which facilitates policy exchange across enterprises and with other XACML products. Its main components include:
- Policy Decision Point (PDP) – implementing XACML 2.0 and 3.0.
- Policy Administration Point (PAP) client – graphical user interface for creating and modifying XACML policies.
- Policy Retrieval Point (PRP) – database or file storage of XACML policies.
- Policy Enforcement Points (PEP) – agents, filters or interceptors that protect applications.
