| Summary: | In Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) environment, a software application is a
composition of services, which are scattered across enterprises and architectures.
Security plays a vital role during the design, development and operation of SOA
applications. However, analysis of today’s software development approaches reveals
that the engineering of security into the system design is often neglected. Security is
incorporated in an ad-hoc manner or integrated during the applications development
phase or administration phase or out sourced. SOA security is cross-domain and all of
the required information is not available at downstream phases. The post-hoc, low-level
integration of security has a negative impact on the resulting SOA applications. General
purpose modeling languages like Unified Modeling Language (UML) are used for
designing the software system; however, these languages lack the knowledge of the
specific domain and “security” is one of the essential domains. A Domain Specific
Language (DSL), named the “UML-SOA-Sec” is proposed to facilitate the modeling of
security objectives along the business process modeling of SOA applications.
Furthermore, Saleem’s MDS (Model Driven Security) services composition framework
is proposed for the development of a secure web service composition. |
