Windows SDK

If you plan to develop programs that run on Windows computers, the IBM Security SDK includes the following:

• A library of commands for access control and privilege management that run in Windows PowerShell.

• Sample scripts that use the IBM Security PowerShell cmdlets to illustrate common administrative tasks.

• Dynamic link libraries that expose interfaces for working with IBM Security objects and attributes stored in Active Directory.

• Sample scripts that illustrate adding and removing users, groups, and zones in VBScript, PowerShell, and .NET (C#) languages.

• An overview of the programming interface architecture, its relationship to the Access Manager console, and the object properties and methods available.

• Reference information for all object properties and methods.

For more information about using Windows PowerShell cmdlets, see the Access Control and Privilege Management Scripting Guide.
