4.0 out of 5 stars Good Overview of Web Services Security, April 2 2006
By 
Gary E. Smith - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Securing Web Services with WS-Security: Demystifying WS-Security, WS-Policy, SAML, XML Signature, and XML Encryption (Paperback)
This book is a good introduction to the application of security to Web Services and SOA. The authors focus on "message level" security versus "transport level" security, and its application to Web Services. The book explains standards: WS-Security, WS-Policy, WS-SecurePolicy and other current standards at the time of publishing (2004).

However these standards are constantly evolving and this book needs to be updated on a regular basis.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book sure does demystify Web Services security, July 15 2004
By 
Michael Rowan (Wakefield, RI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Securing Web Services with WS-Security: Demystifying WS-Security, WS-Policy, SAML, XML Signature, and XML Encryption (Paperback)
Perfect book for the novice as well as the person that thinks they know it all, but just wants to be sure. With the emergence of Web Services and the security concerns surrounding them, its nice to get an strong grasp on the different components that must be considered. This book does a very nice job at outlining the differences and helps anyone understand the critical need for understanding all aspects of securing Web Services. When put in perspective like this, it makes you realize that implementation is not so hard as long as you know what to implement.

3.0 out of 5 stars No practical stuff....and too much belated content, July 11 2004
This review is from: Securing Web Services with WS-Security: Demystifying WS-Security, WS-Policy, SAML, XML Signature, and XML Encryption (Paperback)
The book says quite a lot on the front and back cover but inside I found the content is boring me to death. It has no practical stuff or hands-on value except for repeating the same stuff obtained from w3c and oasis specs. The book lacks how to incorporate the title mentioned security standards in J2EE or .NET based web services. The books shows a Weblogic workshop example that works only for weblogic like "hello world" story and there are too many missing gaps unaddressed in a developer view. In an architect or developer standpoint, this book is too much high-level with lot of things unaddressed. And to the worst, the book has belated content and trails behind a lot with current specs.
