WebSphere MQ security
File Security
You can use standard operating facilities to grant access to program libraries, MQI link libraries, and commands. However, the directory containing queues and other queue manager data is private to WebSphere MQ; do not use standard operating system commands to grant or revoke authorizations to MQI resources.
Types of security
- Who can use WebSphere MQ objects
- Who can connect to a queue manager.
- Who can access objects like queues, namelists, processes, and authentication information objects, and what type of access they have to those objects.
- Who can access WebSphere MQ messages.
- Who can access the context information associated with a message.
Channel security
You need to ensure that channels used to send messages to remote systems can access the required resources. You also need to ensure that channels can only be manipulated by authorized users.
