People should be able to use your SAP applications the same way whether they are inside or outside the firewall.

Novell® Access Manager™ gives your trusted users secure access to web-based content and enterprise applications protected behind your SAP Portal. Users authenticate to the portal with a single username and password, giving them the same user experience in their hotel room as they get when sitting in their office.

With Novell Access Manager, you can also enable your web-based SAP and non-SAP applications for federation without modifying content or installing additional software on the web or application servers. This allows seamless cross-company integration and user authentication without disclosure of credentials.
