Oracle has released its Enterprise Gateway 11g security and management tool for Fusion Middleware.

The company said that the tool adds additional protection and speeds up performance for service oriented architecture (SOA) and cloud application systems.

A component of the Fusion Middleware platform, the Enterprise Gateway 11g provides access control and management functions for applications. 

The software integrates with the Oracle SOA Suite 11g and Identity Management 11g tools, as well as third-party platforms from vendors such as IBM.

Oracle said that the tool also helps to boost the performance of cloud-based and SOA applications by managing and streamlining XML processing.

The vendor sees Enterprise Gateway 11g helping to reduce security risks while simplifying integration.

"With the introduction of the Oracle Enterprise Gateway, Oracle is the only SOA and identity management vendor to offer comprehensive threat mitigation, identity propagation, secure connectivity and compliance for SOA environments," said Oracle vice president for identity management Amit Jasuja.

"Using Oracle Enterprise Gateway, our customers have enhanced security and flexibility to confidently extend their enterprise datacentre into the cloud."

Securing cloud applications has become a major area of focus for IT vendors in recent years.

Many enterprises are still wary about the security of data stored in the cloud, and vendors have made a major push to develop products and business plans that can help to ease such concerns.
