DMZ Setup

Overview.

The DMZ Setup provides a robust security layer between the public internet and your internal Lobster systems in the AWS environment. Functioning as a specialised reverse proxy, it enables controlled access for customers and partners while completely isolating your internal systems from direct external contact. This essential security component ensures that all data traffic follows standardised protocols and undergoes proper validation before reaching your internal environment.

Key Features.

Secure Access Point: Provides a publicly accessible endpoint that enables customers and partners to access services without directly exposing your internal system, protecting your core infrastructure.
Intelligent Data Buffering: Temporarily stores data when the internal system is not available, ensuring data continuity during maintenance or unexpected outages and preventing potential data loss.
Comprehensive Protocol Support: Processes all data traffic through standardised protocols including SSH, FTP/SFTP, OFTP, AS2, and HTTPS requests, providing flexibility for various integration scenarios.
Advanced Authentication Proxy: Securely forwards authentication requests to the internal Lobster system and enables Single Sign-On functionality without compromising security.
Proactive Data Validation: Performs checks on incoming data for compliance with defined rules, rejecting data without corresponding processing channels to reduce security risks.
