Connecting Securely to Oracle Intelligent Advisor Cloud Service: Security and Flexibility for Your Enterprise

Oracle Intelligent Advisor Cloud Service has long been trusted by the world’s largest organizations to deliver mission critical, auditable decisions and advice at scale. As enterprises increasingly operate in hybrid environments — mixing on-premises, multi-cloud, and SaaS applications — secure integration is essential. Here’s how Oracle Intelligent Advisor Cloud Service delivers robust security out of the box, plus the flexibility of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) add-on services for customers with advanced integration needs.

The Connecting with Oracle Intelligent Advisor whitepaper provides a detailed overview of the options available, which are also summarized below. For specific advice tailored to your organization’s situation, contact your Oracle account team.

Secure by default: enterprise-grade protection built in

Security is at the heart of Oracle Intelligent Advisor Cloud Service’s architecture. Every environment comes with comprehensive, built-in security features, ensuring your decision automation workloads are protected whether connecting from on-premises systems or other cloud platforms:

  • All connections encrypted: Incoming and outgoing connections—including end user sessions, API calls, and data integrations—use HTTPS. Outbound connections support secure standards like OAuth 2.0 and mutual TLS.

  • Role-based & workspace-based access control: Fine-grained permissions for users and APIs ensure only the right people and systems can access your data and configurations.

  • Oracle Web Application Firewall: Oracle manages WAF protection in front of Intelligent Advisor environments, blocking threats before they reach your applications.

  • IP allow-listing: Lock down access so only requests from approved IP ranges reach your Intelligent Advisor environments

  • No end-user data stored: Only configuration, project, and audit data are persisted (encrypted at rest). Data flowing through interviews or API calls is used only for the session and discarded after completion.

  • Private in-region traffic: Traffic to and from Intelligent Advisor and other Cloud-hosted services in the same region stay within Oracle’s private backbone—not traversing the public internet.

These capabilities mean you can confidently connect Intelligent Advisor to your enterprise systems, knowing Oracle’s security-first design and best practices are applied from day one.

(Note that there may be some variation in the exact options available depending on your specific application environment.)

OCI add-ons: flexibility for enhanced security and performance

For organizations with additional requirements, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) offers a range of optional services to further boost both security and performance when integrating Intelligent Advisor with your enterprise systems:

  • Private routing with FastConnect: Get the highest connection performance by using OCI FastConnect with Private Peering to privately connect your on-premises or cloud networks directly to your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure tenancy. 

  • OCI network services: Virtual cloud network configuration, network address translation, network load balancer and a machine learning–powered firewall are all available as additional services that provide more advanced control for handling your network routing and traffic needs as it flows through your OCI tenancy to and from the rest of your enterprise network.


In summary:
Oracle Intelligent Advisor Cloud Service is secure out of the box — ready for immediate integration with your hybrid enterprise. And for organizations needing extra layers of protection, performance, or compliance, OCI provides a rich suite of services to tailor your connectivity and security posture to meet your organisation’s specific needs.
