AXWAY 5 SUITEGOVERN THE FLOW OF DATA

The traditional enterprise boundary is disappearing.

What was once a clearly delineated, moat-like barrier

protected by firewalls and security policies is being

stretched, blurred and challenged — from the inside

out and the outside in.

Why? Because it is up against an unstoppable, transformational wave — a torrent of business initiatives that require some degree of integration with other departments or external partners; cloud and/or mobile access to data and transactions; and the ability for business units, individuals and partners to exchange new types of information anytime, anywhere. Over the next few years, more than two thirds of all integration will occur across or outside the firewall. It’s a powerful force, and far too important to ignore.

If you want to provide mobile access to millions of healthcare customers, optimize inventory across hundreds of global partners, or process billions of financial transactions across international borders, you need to be able to integrate a combination of internal and external entities, the cloud, mobile devices, the Internet of Things, and big data.

San Francisco-based Bank of the West —

a wholly owned subsidiary of global financial

services leader BNP Paribas, with more

than $63 billion in assets — uses Axway 5

Suite to manage the flow of inter- and intra-

company data and deliver innovative services

to its customers. With Axway 5 Suite, Bank

of the West adds critical technology to its

infrastructure and is now able to offer a broad

spectrum of new products and services to its

commercial clients.

“The Axway 5 Suite platform has allowed us

to deliver a number of services by leveraging

a single solution. We have all the resources

to make things happen, and to discover new

ways to help our customers be efficient and

effective. We have a great relationship with

Axway, and we look forward to continuing it

into the future.”

But none of this comes easy. When integration goes outside the enterprise and data is distributed on-premise, across systems and via cloud services, your work becomes even more complex. Data becomes hard to secure, monitor and track, increasing the risk of security breaches, data loss and compliance issues. Service level agreements (SLAs) are harder to measure and maintain because information gets routed through more systems and people, and delivered to new kinds of endpoints beyond the firewall. And that’s a big problem, because with business SLAs or regulatory compliance, losses and penalties can run into the hundreds of millions of dollars.

To turn the tide in favor of your business, you need to be able to quickly capitalize on new technologies and opportunities without violating enterprise security policies designed to keep private data in and “bad things” out. You need to be able to support new standards and styles of integration to take advantage of cloud and mobile channels. And you need to ensure end-to-end visibility and control of all flows of data across old and new technologies.

Axway 5 Suite can help you do all of these things and more. It has already given thousands of companies a new way to defend today’s amorphous enterprise boundary, while gaining the power to integrate and govern the data that needs to cross that boundary. With Axway 5 Suite, they are:

� Inviting employees, partners and customers into business-critical processes

� Freeing information previously trapped in legacy systems

� Enabling secure and auditable human interactions

� Harnessing the power of the cloud, the mobile revolution and big data

The New Integration Challenge

Integration is no longer contained within the four walls of the enterprise. Over the next few years, more than two thirds of all integration will take place across and outside the traditional enterprise boundary, the firewall. To enable high-value business interactions, data needs to flow along many paths comprised of many points inside and outside the firewall, including internal applications, partner communities, people, and cloud and mobile applications.

Axway 5 Suite gives you the power to govern any flow of data — structured or unstructured, real-time or historical, simple or complex — across the edge of the enterprise, whether it moves between people or systems, on-premise, in the cloud or via mobile devices.

By helping you move away from point-to-point integrations and toward governing end-to-end flows of data, Axway 5 Suite can help you accelerate new business initiatives and improve reliability, security and compliance — all at a lower overall cost of ownership

GOVERN THE FLOW OF DATAACROSS DOMAINS AND ECOSYSTEMS

The majority of integration done today spans departments, customers, partners, mobile and cloud technologies, and new types of “big” data. This poses a new integration challenge because each new project comes with yet another integration technology. And the more technologies you add, the harder it is to monitor and manage the end-to-end flow of data that supports your business processes. To speed up delivery of new services, gain visibility, improve reliability and cut costs, new integration technologies must be able to work with the old ones across domains and ecosystems.

Axway 5 Suite is the convergence of Axway’s market-leading integration, managed file transfer, B2B and API management products and cloud services. It helps companies break down barriers between departments, application silos and user ecosystems, and gives them the ability to cost effectively govern the flow of data:

� within internal infrastructures

� across partner communities

� from person to system and person to person

� to and from cloud applications, mobile devices and the Internet of Things

Across new and existing applications, systems and technologies, Axway 5 enables:

� Integration — Exchange data between business entities, wherever they are located, in an intelligent, reliable and secure manner.

� API management — Standardize and centralize control over all services that interact with mission-critical systems and communities inside and outside your organization.

� Community management — Reduce risk and improve customer and partner satisfaction by automating and streamlining how you on-board, manage and interact with members of your trading community.

� Visibility — Provide data flow analytics that enable technical and business users to proactively identify and solve problems before they disrupt business processes, using real-time dashboards, reports and alerts.

� Policy — Define and enforce policies that govern access, routing and remediation to guarantee that interactions happen as expected, even when people, devices, and infrastructure are outside your data center’s control.

� Identity management — Bridge identity management solutions across firewalls and standards for cost-effective access control across end-to-end flows of data.

� Security and compliance — Protect against security breaches and data loss, capture complete audit trails, and ensure compliance with industry and government regulations as well as your organization’s internal security and privacy policies, with a broad spectrum of policy-based security capabilities and control.

Govern data flows in the context of business interactions

However you blend the components of Axway 5 Suite, and whether you deploy them on premise or in the cloud as services, you have the ability to achieve greater control, security and visibility of all data flows required to support your business-critical interactions, from start to finish.

A unique combination of capabilities provides true data flow governance for system- and human-initiated interactions within the enterprise, across partner communities, and out to the cloud and mobile devices, so you can finally tap into the full value of your business interactions.

Instead of managing each file transfer, EDI transaction, or partner provisioning process in isolation, you can govern them all together as a single end-to-end flow of data. And, along the way, you can gain the knowledge you need to make changes that improve business relationships and enterprise performance.

Available on-premise or in the cloud

Axway 5 Suite components can be installed on premise or consumed as cloud services managed by your IT organization or by Axway. This flexibility makes it easy to quickly connect your on-premise systems to your partner networks and mobile and web applications without having to buy new hardware or disrupt your internal IT infrastructure and staff.

GOVERN THE FLOW OF DATAACROSS PARTNER COMMUNITIES

In a typical interaction, data may be sent by a partner, captured by a gateway, moved with several file transfer solutions to different internal applications, integrated with the target applications through disparate technologies (MOM/ESB/web services), and acknowledged by reversing the entire sequence...or not acknowledged at all. By removing the complexity and cost of tracking and controlling data on its journey from the outside, into and throughout the enterprise, and back out to external communities, Axway 5 Suite gives you the power to capitalize on the inherent value of your business information.

Using Axway 5 Suite, you can seamlessly integrate EDI, XML and other data flows with entities outside of your enterprise, including suppliers, customers, financial institutions, and regulatory bodies. The data flows are manageable, secure and auditable, with end-to-end visibility that lets you monitor and track the data flows and events that impact your supply or value chain across your entire IT infrastructure. When data moves into, out of, or within your business systems, the right people will know about it — whether they’re on the assembly line, at corporate headquarters or in a regional accounting group.

Cloud-based community management

Axway 5 Suite also extends traditional on-premise infrastructures and hub-and-spoke models with cloud-based community management that provides everything you need to design, automate and monitor workflows in a hybrid cloud/on-premise environment. Automated on-boarding closes the gap between business relationship management and technical connectivity, so partners can quickly join and begin interacting with your trading community in a whole new way.

Don’t risk SLA penalties and lost business

Data that arrives late or with inaccuracies or other defects will hit you where it hurts — on the top and the bottom lines. What happens if you can’t meet your SLAs or a partner or customer receives the wrong product? How long will it be before you’re no longer asked to bid on new business or your customer chooses a different vendor?

GOVERN THE FLOW OF DATAWITHIN YOUR ENTERPRISE

Even if data isn’t traveling beyond the firewall, corporate and government mandates require that it be managed and secured as it flows among departments, applications and sites within an organization. Yet many enterprises rely on outdated proprietary software to facilitate the movement of data across internal domains, or live in fear of a ticking time bomb made up of rogue integration, B2B and FTP sites and vulnerable homegrown and point-to-point connections.

With Axway 5 Suite, you can consolidate your internal cross-departmental integration with a single solution that provides:

� Secure, fast and reliable transfer and tracking of data and files internally across mainframes, AS/400, ERP and other systems in any mode — scheduled, event-driven, store-and-forward, push or pull — regardless of changing file sizes and volumes or spikes in loads, without accidental data leakage or loss, and without application rewrites.

� Real-time integration across applications both on premise and in the cloud, with support for messaging, web services and a host of B2B protocols, as well rich support for new de facto cloud integration standards including REST and JSON.

� Security and identity management with integrated security administration and identity mediation that bridge across identity management solutions and security standards, including SAML and OAuth, on premise and in the cloud.

� End-to-end visibility through dashboards that provide technical and business metrics on end-to-end flows of data across file, application integration and B2B interactions.

� End-to-end data flow governance and control with the ability to define policies and monitor data flows across different integrations and technologies, and take action based on business rules to optimize business performance and satisfy SLAs.

� Auditing with built-in support for audit trails and logging of data and security, with the ability to monitor for any changes in security or suspicious behavior.

Don’t risk losses in productivity and efficiency

In today’s world, where organizations are highly interdependent, any disruption in the flow of critical data can have a far-reaching ripple effect — the IT director, the application manager, the business process owner, the vice president of supply chain, the CIO, partners, customers, and even the CEO can be adversely impacted.

Without the ability to fully govern the flow of data across your internal infrastructure, identifying and solving problems can quickly turn into a futile exercise that wastes valuable time and energy.

GOVERN THE FLOW OF DATAIN THE CLOUD

Business users are increasingly turning to cloud-based services — with or without IT support or permission — to improve collaboration, support new business initiatives and lower costs. But integrating these new services with what’s running on-premise is hard for a number of reasons. For example, cloud services rely on a host of new technology standards, including REST and JSON for integration and OAuth for security. They’re also outside the firewall. And the additional loads from new offerings like customer self-service or online ordering can overwhelm existing systems. Without sufficient controls in place, enterprise security, privacy, compliance and reliability are at risk.

Using Axway technology, IT organizations have achieved the best of both worlds — delivering cloud initiatives that support the agility and self-service capabilities the business needs, while integrating, securing and governing all types of cloud applications and services (SaaS, IaaS and PaaS) with on-premise, mobile and B2B applications and services to stay in compliance and keep the business up and running. As an alternative to on-premise applications, Axway also offers comprehensive Managed Services or hosted environments.

By leveraging the API management capabilities of Axway 5 Suite to build, manage and secure integration between on-premise and cloud-based applications and services, you can:

� Expose existing assets as APIs using a graphical development environment with native support for REST, web services and messaging.

� Integrate cloud and on-premise services with advanced transformation, mediation and policy-based rules.

� Secure APIs with encryption, data masking and SAML-and OAuth-based single sign-on to any combination of cloud-based services, traditional B2B services and on-premise applications.

� Deliver Identity-as-a-Service to extend identity management beyond the firewall. Axway provides out-of-the box connectors that enable integration with existing enterprise security infrastructures and controls, including authentication, authorization, audit, trust relationship management and identity federation.

� Monitor, manage and govern any traffic using built-in administration and monitoring, rich data-flow analytics, and independent audit trails that provide end-to-end visibility and control for governing the flow of data.

Cohesion through API Management

Today’s business ecosystems are more dynamic and connected than ever — a reality that is putting enormous pressure on IT organizations to pick up the pace of integration.

But yesterday’s SOA and ESB implementations are proving too heavyweight for the new world of cloud, social and mobile applications, and simply exposing legacy system APIs is not enough.

With Axway 5 Suite’s API management capabilities, you can blend old and new by preserving the good aspects of your SOA investments — re-use and shared services — and deploying them using modern REST APIs and an innovative API Catalog.

With no coding required, you can create API facades in front of existing infrastructure to gain a top-down, centralized view of, and control over, all services that interact with mission-critical systems and communities inside and outside your organization. Axway secures your REST APIs using the latest standards (such as OAuth 2.0), and leverages your existing security and identity infrastructure.

This unique approach enables a level of cohesion across functional components that no other provider can match.

GOVERN THE FLOW OF DATA

FOR MOBILE DEVICES AND THE “INTERNET OF THINGS”

The mobile world is officially here, with approximately 1 billion smartphones, 7 billion mobile devices and nearly 1 trillion interconnected devices worldwide. Add in connectivity to machines and to remote devices like vehicles, home appliances and smart meters (the “Internet of Things”), and you must not only move a magnitude of data, but also support a proliferation of endpoints that produce and consume the data — a “data tsunami” that threatens to overwhelm IT systems. Companies need to make these channels a real part of how business gets done, because employees, consumers, customers and partners expect to be able to use their mobile and other interconnected devices to access data and execute business transactions.

The mobile and connected world is built on a new set of standards and integration approaches that are not supported by the application-integration and service-oriented architectures many companies have in place today. Axway 5 Suite provides the capabilities you need to quickly transform existing applications and web services into secure APIs for mobile and machine-to-machine communications, so you can:

� Enable BYOD initiatives by extending your existing identity management platform to secure mobile access and ensure that all data is delivered to mobile apps through secure APIs (rather than storing data on unsecured, untrusted and easily lost or stolen mobile devices).

� Expose existing assets via secure, mobile- and connected-device-friendly APIs. Axway provides a graphical development environment with native support for REST, web services and OAuth, so you can easily grant access to existing back-end systems without making intrusive changes.

� Secure data and minimize risk by ensuring that your mobile APIs do not become an avenue for Denial-of-Service or data-mining attacks. Axway’s out-of-the-box API security capabilities enable you to control access to, and secure data transmitted by, API and SOA services. Complete auditing, monitoring, logging and reporting capabilities also help you meet stringent compliance mandates.

� Support high data volumes generated and consumed by Internet-connected devices, while overcoming intermittent connections through asynchronous communications.

GOVERN THE FLOW OF DATA

FROM PERSON-TO-PERSON AND PERSON-TO-SYSTEM

In today’s fluid, fast-paced, and highly collaborative business environment, it isn’t possible (or necessarily beneficial) to pre-plan every data exchange. Partners, vendors, and customers need information when they need it, and your business users will employ whatever tools they have at their fingertips to move documents and files where they need to go — including email systems that are isolated from system traffic, unsecured and unmanaged FTP sites, and consumer-focused file-sharing services in the cloud.

Of course, standard email and simple ad-hoc file-sharing sites are not designed for enterprise-class data exchange. They may be fast and easy compared to logging into a separate application or web site to send and receive data securely, but they lack the controls, encryption and audit trails required to prevent data breaches and compliance violations that can compromise business relationships, intellectual property and corporate brands. And they lack the visibility, integration and reliability required to meet tight SLAs and prevent business interruptions by ensuring that data arrives intact, on time and uncorrupted.

Axway 5 Suite brings enterprise-class security and visibility to ad hoc person-to-person and person-to-system data exchange, enabling you to:

� Deliver a managed shared service that enables business users to securely send and receive files of any size and any type at any time using familiar and easy-to-use interfaces including Lotus Notes, Outlook, web-based email, or a web portal.

� Consolidate file-transfer requirements from multiple business units, divisions or projects on one infrastructure while meeting their various usage needs and security requirements.

� Define and centrally enforce policies that secure data, control file access and movement, create audit trails, and ensure regulatory compliance, with no need for users to change the way they work or learn a new application or tool.

� Gain visibility into human-oriented and system-oriented data flows in one place, breaking down the barriers that have separated these domains in the past.

� Use single sign-on and LDAP to simplify adoption and on-boarding while maintaining the ability to govern the flow of data beyond your corporate network.

� Establish a valuable two-way communications channel that creates stronger relationships with customers and partners, differentiates your services from the competition, and reduces the cost of sending and receiving sensitive information.
