Delegated User Management Engine

Introduction

Delegated user management (DUM) is an add-on application for your platform. It is a ready-to-use feature that enables you to let selected (third-party) contacts manage access and authorizations for other users in a secure way. This helps you reduce the management overhead. It can be configured easily for the needs of different industries and client-types.

DUM consists of two components:

  • The core application (aka DUM Engine) is a backend component that comes with a REST API interface. The application is deployed in a docker container. The application handles authentication with Basic Auth and also through the SAML protocol.
  • The front-end (aka DUM app) is a web application that offers a user interface. The DUM web application is considered a DUM-engine’s web client. An end-user can access business functionality of the application through a clear user interface. In addition, it includes other functionality such as assigning contacts.

The pages within this site focus on the DUM Engine.
