Security exits
Use security exit programs to verify that the partner at the other end of a connection is genuine.
When you connect from the WebSphere® Message Broker Toolkit or WebSphere Message Broker Explorer to a broker on another computer, a security exit is not started by default to monitor the connection. If you want to protect access to the broker from client programs, you can use the WebSphere MQ security exit facility.
You can enable a security exit at each end of the connection between
your client session and the broker:
- Set up a security exit on the channel at the broker end. This security exit has no special requirements; you can provide a standard security exit.
- Set up a security exit in the WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit or WebSphere Message Broker Explorer. Identify the security exit properties when you connect to the broker. The security exit is a standard WebSphere MQ security exit, written in Java™.
For an overview of security exits and details of their implementation, see "Channel security exit programs" in the Intercommunication section of the WebSphere MQ Version 7 Information Center online.
