| Abstract: |
CBDI has consistently advocated an approach to security engineering for SOA that is agile, holistic and responds intelligently to the complexities of the business and technology ecosystem.
A number of powerful stakeholders are now echoing these messages, including the Jericho Forum (an influential group of blue chip companies) and the US President's Information Technology Advisory Committee (PITAC). Furthermore, a number of IT vendors (including Microsoft) are endorsing these messages nd promising security products and platforms in support of the Jericho manifesto. |
| Backgrounder: |
Security has always been a major concern (and possibly even an inhibitor) for web services. However, for many years many companies adopted a highly cautious approach to web service security, based on the fortress metaphor. CBDI has consistently been critical of the Fortress model of security, for two main reasons. Firstly, it prevents us from doing what we want to do. And more importantly, it doesn't work.
