A double firewalled system is disclosed for protecting remote enterprise servers that provide communication services to telecommunication network customers from unauthorized third parties. A first router directs all connection requests to one or more secure web servers, which may utilize a load balancer to efficiently distribute the session connection load among a high number of authorized client users. On the network side of the web servers, a second router directs all connection requests to a dispatcher server, which routes application server calls to a proxy server for the application requested. A plurality of data security protocols are also employed. The protocols provide for an identification of the user, and an authentication of the user to ensure the user is who he/she claims to be and a determination of entitlements that the user may avail themselves of within the enterprise system.

A plurality of data security protocols are also employed. The protocols provide for an identification of the user, and an authentication of the user to ensure the user is who he/she claims to be and a determination of entitlements that the user may avail themselves of within the enterprise system. Session security is described, particularly as to the differences between a remote user's copper wire connection to a legacy system and a user's remote connection to the enterprise system over a 'stateless' public Internet, where each session is a single transmission, rather than an interval of time between logon and logoff, as is customary in legacy systems.

An integrated series of security protocols is disclosed that protect remote user communications with remote enterprise services, and simultaneously protect the enterprises services from third parties. In the first layer, an implementation of the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) version of HTTPS provides communications security, including authentication of the enterprise web server and the security of the transmitted data.

Security for the enterprise network and security for the data maintained by the various enterprise applications is also described.

Secure customer interface for web based data management

Secure customer interface for Web based data management

A network management system allows a customer of a communications service provider to manage communications services using a web server that communicates with a client web browser. The customer is able to view information associated with various communications systems and services via the client web browser. The customer is also able to submit requests for changes in service to the web server.

Customer interface system for managing communications services including toll free services

A network management system allows a customer to manage communications services using a web server that communicates with a client web browser. The client is able to view information associated with various communications systems and services via the client web browser. The client is also able to submit requests for changes in service to the web server.
