Security services

MQe provides the following services to assist with security:

Private registry services
MQe private registry provides a repository in which public and private objects can be stored. It provides (login) PIN protected access so that access to a private registry is restricted to the authorized user. It also provides additional services so that functions can use the entity's private key, (for digital signature, and RSA decryption) without the private credentials leaving the PrivateRegistry instance.

These services are used by queue-based security and message-level security using MQeTrustAttribute.

Public registry services
MQe public registry provides a publicly accessible repository for mini-certificates.

These services can be used by queue-based and message-level security.

Mini-certificate issuance service
MQe provides SupportPac™ ES03, "MQe WTLS Mini-Certificate Server", which includes a default mini-certificate issuance service which you can configure to issue mini-certificates to a carefully controlled set of entity names.

These services can be used by queue-based and message-level security.
