Custom Authentication Providers for Cognos

Custom authentication providers enable IBM Cognos to utilize your specific sources for authentication. For example, security credentials may be stored in a proprietary database or in an external security system which is not supported by IBM Cognos out-of-the-box.

Connect any Security Provider to Cognos

Attempting to build a custom authentication solution is extremely risky and requires a very specialized skill set.

There are a number of subtleties and potential pitfalls when developing a custom authentication provider. Some of these can leave holes in your security system, and others can cause IBM Cognos to function incorrectly or inefficiently. Most of these issues will only be discovered the hard way.

The MotioCAP framework embeds solutions to these issues so that they are taken care of automatically and exposes convenient flex points for you to integrate your particular environment. This saves you time and money on development expenses.
