Universal Messaging offers complete control over security policies. Universal Messaging can either store security policies locally or be driven by an external entitlements service.

Universal Messaging's rich set of entitlements ensure that everything from a network connection through to topic and queue creation can be controlled on a per user basis.

Every component of a Universal Messaging server has a set of entitlements associated with it. These entitlements can be set programmatically or through the Universal Messaging Enterprise Manager.

For more information on the components that entitlements can be set against please refer to the Universal Messaging ACL Guide (see Access Control Lists (ACLs)).
