The present disclosure relates generally to managing security artifacts for a software application executing on a software stack. Techniques are described for defining a security configuration such that each layer of the software stack may be associated with one or more datastores, each datastore including one or more security artifacts for a particular layer. The security configuration may specify, for example, an order in which the various datastores are to be accessed when a request is received for a security artifact that is available from multiple datastores. Using the security configuration, access to security artifacts can be handled in connection with requests generated through a particular layer in the stack. A system managing the security artifacts can provide a unified view of the datastores such that, from the end-user's perspective, there is only one logical datastore.

Managing security artifacts for multilayered applications

In certain embodiments, techniques are provided (e.g., a method, a system, non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code or instructions executable by one or more processors) to provide fine grained protection of resources in an access management environment. An access management service can intercept requests for resources (e.g., content in a content management system) and provide fine-grained authorization service for content management systems, such as Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server. The access management service can provide external policy management, evaluation and enforcement for content management systems. The access management service can include a plurality of plugins associated with different types of resources available through the content management systems. Integrating an access management service with content management systems provides both user and administrator efficiencies while enforcing a consistent level of access security across an enterprise system.
