Security for integrated components and third-party products

FileNet P8 Platform is integrated with several FileNet and third-party software products. The topics in this section briefly describe the security features of some of those products and the requirements when used in conjunction with FileNet P8 Platform.

FileNet P8 security is enforced for all operations performed via an integrated application, although the details of implementation will vary depending on the application.

FileNet does not support operating systems, databases, or other software from independent software vendors, and might or might not certify updates, fixes, or service packs released by independent software vendors. For any incident involving such software or for any updates to such products, customers must obtain information, support, and updates from the independent software vendor.

IBM might inform you (and might on occasion make a patch available) when a patch to such software is required for correct functioning of FileNet P8 software. When another vendor's patch interferes with the functioning of FileNet P8 software, we will resolve the problem or advise you not to apply that particular patch until the issue has been resolved.
