Flexible Entitlements Management for Service Based Applications |
| |
|
As organizations add new application services into their infrastructure they increasingly face compliance pressures to control who gets access to what resource and even what operation within the resource.
Managing these kind of entitlements centrally, across heterogeneous systems, poses unique challenges not addressed by today's Single Sign-on products. It requires fine grained policy control, support for key standards like XACML and SAML and the ability to scale to thousands of backend services and millions of service consumers.
In this webinar given by Layer 7 Solution Architect Jonathan Gershater you will learn about the unique access control problems introduced by next generation service based architectures (SOA, Web 2.0, SaaS, ...) and learn how SOA Security Gateways can be used to quickly manage and enforce fine grained entitlements flexibly and scalably.
Presenter:
- Jonathan Gershater, Solution Architect, Layer 7 Technologies
What You Will Learn:
- The difference between fine grained and coarse grained authorization
- The challenge with implementing fine grained authorization in a Web service based environment
- How to leverage existing identity infrastructure for entitlements management
- How to use SOA Security Gateways to enforce entitlement preferences

Building Multi-Enterprise SOA |
| |
|
The focus of many Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) initiatives has commonly been focused on "behind the firewall" or internal systems and processes. But the recognized benefits of SOA and Web services in particular can add even more value when applied to sharing resources and data across multiple domains inside and enterprise or between partners. Managing the construction of these multi-domain SOA's requires an ability to bridge disparate message oriented middleware domains, identity domains, security domains and diverse communication protocols and standards.
What You Will Learn:
- How SOA appliances can help facilitate cross-domain or multi-enterprise SOA
- How they can be used to address identity federation, service virtualization, security compliance, SLA enforcement, non-repudiation, wide-area routing and bandwidth optimization
- How these class of products can simplify the on-boarding of remote service consumers for diverse applications like B2B, SaaS and Cloud

How To Fail at SOA |
| |
|
Successful SOA really means success with an actual implementation. SOA never appears as a big bag; instead, it begins small, emerging from the primordial network ooze as a proof-of-concept or a modest suite of Web services applications. For over six years, Layer 7 has been building real SOAs for government and some of the world’s largest corporations. In this time, we have seen repeated patterns of bad practice, pitfalls, and simple bad decisions. Avoid these, and your SOA might just succeed.

A Practical Guide to Policy Authoring for SOA Governance |
| |
|
This Webcast, presented by Layer 7 CTO and WS-Policy co-editor Dr. Toufic Boubez will cover how to declaratively define SOA Policy for SOA Governance applications. Consistent, standards based policy definition is the first step in implementing an SOA Governance framework. However, few tools exist for managing the policy authoring process and integrating it into the full policy lifecycle process including repository, approval workflow, enforcement, monitoring and change. Since successful policy definition lies at the heart of SOA security and SLA implementation it is essential in practice. In this Webcast you will learn:
- why declarative Policy is critical for implementing SOA Security, Quality of Service and Governance
- industry standards for defining SOA Policy in an interoperable way
- tools and IDEs for authoring SOA Policy
- demonstration of policy authoring in SOA
- putting it all together: showing how policy authoring fits into a broader SOA Policy Lifecycle Process

Bridging the Web with Web Services |
| |
|
Portal initiatives are becoming key consumers of SOA technologies. By providing a single framework for delivering information and functionality consistently across Web and Web services, SOA promises significant IT benefits including flexibility and reuse. However, managing security, policy and transactional preferences consistently between the Web and Web services remains problematic. There are issues of credentialing, federation, session, compliance and so on. In this talk given by Layer 7 Senior Product Manager Phil Walson, he will examine some of these issues and their solutions using specific customer examples in the insurance and banking sector. |

Policy Driven SOA |
| |
|
Architecting and implementing secure and flexible Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) requires an ability to mediate interactions between services based on a declarative and remediable policy language. Coding interaction policies between services results in brittle SOA infrastructures that can't accommodate changing security and business needs. In this talk given by Layer 7 CTO Dr. Toufic Boubez, you will hear how a Policy control infrastructure for SOA can be used to engineer loosely-coupled SOA architectures that can span security domains.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
SLA for SOA |
| |
|
Service Oriented Architectures require software functionality to be available to trusted clients and intermediaries, on-demand. However implementing practical on-demand infrastructures requires an ability to define and enforce service level agreements (SLAs) so that service functionality or data can be predictably and contractually delivered to specific clients based on their identity or transaction context. In this Webinar given by Layer 7's Senior Product Manager, Phil Walston, you will learn about the various SLA policy considerations SOA architects need to contend with and how to implement solutions in real-world architectures.

Understanding the Implication of Sarbanes-Oxley to SOA |
| |
|
Service Oriented Architecture is transforming IT. Service-centric integration allows applications built on Web services to access other applications without human intermediates. This complicates identity and access control even though Sarbanes-Oxley makes it mandatory. The financial controls and reporting required by section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX), forces companies to rethink how they govern their IT processes. It requires identity and access infrastructure that can both control and validate user-machine interactions as well as SOA-based machine-machine interactions. In this talk given by Layer 7's Senior Product Manager Philip Walston, you will learn how your existing identity and access investment can be leveraged to achieve Sarbanes-Oxley compliance for your SOA application environment.

Protecting Against XML Threats and Web Services Vulnerabilities |
| |
|
XML is gaining broad enterprise adoption. By providing a common, standards based framework for exchanging data between applications, XML streamlines information integration. However the open nature of XML also makes it vulnerable to new kinds of threats. In this talk given by Layer 7's Scott Morrison - Director of Architecture, you will learn about the kind of threats and vulnerabilities that can be introduced via XML messages, attachments and APIs. You will also learn how these same vulnerabilities can be mitigated leveraging purpose built XML and Web services security gateways. |

|
Compliance and Policy Conformance in Web Services |
| |
|
Ensuring IT compliance with government regulations and corporate policies is of paramount concern in today’s business environment. Real-time integration technologies like XML and Web services make this problem harder since systems need to react to environment changes or policy violations, instantaneously. Using real world examples from the financial services sector, Toufic Boubez, CTO of Layer 7 Technologies will describe how an organization can architect and implement a distributed, service-centric compliance and policy conformance solution. |
| |
|
|
|
|
Understanding XML and Web Services Performance |
| |
|
For enterprises migrating toward XML and Web services, performance and scalability are of central concern. Processing XML is computationally intensive. Since XML is core to Web services, building real-time architectures over top of Web services depends on the ability to rapidly process XML and perform policy based operations like routing, transformation and security at or close to wire speeds. Doing this in a heterogeneous, loosely-coupled environment only exacerbates the problem.
This Webinar, given by Layer 7 Director of Architecture Scott Morrison, will review the issues and solutions for scaling Web services. |

SOA Governance |
| |
|
XML and Web services are transforming how applications get integrated together. This sea change in integration architecture often referred to as SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) is fundamentally altering the security landscape. In this new application environment, perimeter security will not be enough. Enterprises will need to develop new approaches to secure their applications and integrations across federated departments and partners. Managing interactions between
distributed systems shared as Web services requires a new approach to security, it requires SOA Governance.
