Description

Just as web applications have redefined the way businesses interact with people, web services and service-oriented architectures are redefining the way businesses interact with each other. By approaching web services security from an attacker's point of view, we can address the assumptions in application-to-application communication that can lead to vulnerabilities in a web service. In this presentation, Security PS will demonstrate common attacks and evaluate methods and best practices to defend against them. We will also discuss the need for a policy-based approach to web services security that can be applied across an organization to reduce exposure and decrease the emergence of new risks.
