One-Day Workshops Offer IT Professionals Real-World Best Practices for Designing and Deploying Secure SOA, REST and Cloud Implementations
Mountain View, CA – April 21, 2011 – The ability of WikiLeaks to obtain thousands of confidential documents from the US government provides an important security lesson for enterprise IT professionals worldwide. It is not enough to simply authorize users; it is also crucial to implement policy-based entitlement that limits what users can access based on their roles and relationships to the organization. That is true whether the service-oriented architecture (SOA) being secured is based on SOAP or REST, and whether it is on-premise or resides in the cloud.
WSO2 will provide enterprise architects and software developers with an overview of proven security and identity management best practices to address these demands in a dynamic one-day workshop, “SOA Security & Identity,” which is being held in four European locations:
