In a SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) environment security is more difficult than in a centralized architecture. Loosely coupled, heterogenous services communicate through a variety of intermediary points, where security can be compromised, and the perimeters of your system may not be secure. In this environment the old point-to-point security methods, such as SSL, are no longer sufficient. End-to-end methods are needed.
In this speech at Burton Group's 2005 Catalyst Conference Anne Thomas Manes argues that Web Services require a multi-level security strategy. Her talk covers when and why you should use Web Services and the benefits of application security frameworks that allow security policies to be held externally from the applications. Manes explains in detail the security standards for web services and finishes with some practical recommendations on how to choose products and implement a comprehensive security strategy.
