The HiveMQ Enterprise Security Extension makes it possible to integrate existing enterprise security systems into your HiveMQ device authentication and authorization workflow. The extension makes it possible to provide a single source of truth for device authentication and authorization information across multiple HiveMQ brokers operating in a cluster and provides a single source of management for the security information.
HiveMQ Enterprise Security Extensions includes the following capabilities:
Integration with third party enterprise security systems, like:
SQL databases
OAuth/OpenID Connect provider via JSON Web Tokens
LDAP server and MS Active Directory
Allow for fine-grained authorization rules that can specify permissions for specific clients or groups of clients.
A structured access log for tracking security related device information.
Access control for the HiveMQ Control Center.
