Hi

We have a situation where we have an MQ server in the DMZ. At this server we have a number of local queues and we deliver data to these queues from our internal systems. Then a number of customers GET data from these local queues, via own MQ clients.

The concern is security, how do we safeguard in an easy way that a customer can only access one single queue and not the other ones?

Have you read the Security manual?

Do you understand the security provisions of your MQ system? (I'm hoping very hard that you aren't using z/OS as an Edge queue manager host, so likely you will be working with OAM-based security and setmqaut)

Have you considered enforcing the use of SSL for those client connections, and using an MCAUser on each client channel?
