Cache Security

NCache Security provides a multi-layered security framework, combining LDAP with Transparent Data Encryption to protect mission-critical data in distributed environments. This security model ensures that only authenticated individuals can access data or modify configurations, mitigating risks without impacting application performance.

LDAP Authentication

NCache security mechanism works with any LDAP-supported Directory Services. All users are authenticated against all LDAP-supported Directory Services using the LDAP Authentication method in NCache. NCache provides you with a security feature with different levels of granularity that you can implement as per your requirements.

NCache provides a customizable security feature for securing distributed cache access. You can prevent any unwanted or unauthorized access to your NCache cluster, and to the data that resides in the cluster by simply configuring NCache security.

Data Encryption in NCache

To ensure that the data transmitted over the network is secure, NCache provides a Data Encryption mechanism. Data being transmitted over the network between cache servers and your application can be secured by configuring the NCache Data Encryption Mechanisms. No code changes are required for NCache security and encryption customizations.
