ABSTRACT

Chapter 5 provided an overview of the service-oriented computing paradigm and security issues for services. First, we discussed the notion of services, SOA and web services, the emerging X as a service paradigm, and SOA and design. en, we discussed security for SOA and web services. In particular, we discussed access control for web services, standards such as SAML and XACML and some emerging security models such as models for delegation, information flow, and multilevel security. We also discussed identity management for web services.
