BIG IP APM
If you want to keep your organizational information secure and impenetrable in every way, in addition to preparing the required licenses for the network, you need to make rules to control access to applications. One way hackers and cyber attackers access personal or organizational information is through your applications. Restricting people on the network from accessing applications is a complex task. Most organizations and companies have key applications that users, both inside and outside the organization, must have access to perform organizational activities.
Being able to assign users to use a particular program on the network at specific times and for a limited period of time has always been an important challenge for managers of organizations and companies. On the other hand, most applications do not support new technologies or are not yet fully mature and have poor implementation of security protocols. Therefore, preventing unauthorized access to these programs is an important security requirement. This is because attackers can inflict irreparable damage on businesses by obtaining only one username and password.

One of the weaknesses of these systems is identified when a user needs occasional access to another part of the application and the network administrator gives him this access. But when the person’s need is met, unfortunately, the re-closure of these accesses is forgotten by the network administrators and these accesses remain open for a long time. This will also lead to information leaks in the future. Therefore, due to the numerous weaknesses that exist in managing the identity of users and granting them access.
In these cases, the presence of an access management system is essential in terms of information and resource security. F5 has introduced a comprehensive product called F5 BIG-IP Access Policy Manager (APM) License to solve problems with access to applications. In the following, we will review the features and capabilities of this product.
