Services A, B, and C reside in Service Inventory A and Services D, E, and F reside in Service Inventory B .Service B is an authentication broker that issues WS-Trust based SAML tokens to Services A and C upon receiving security credentials from Services A and C .Service E is an authentication broker that issues WS-Trust based SAML tokens to Services D and F upon receiving security credentials from Services D and E .Service B uses the Service Inventory A identify store to validate the security credentials of Services A and C .Service E uses the Service Inventory B identity store to validate the security credentials of Services D and F .To date, the two service inventories have existed independently from each other. However, a requirement has emerged that the services in Service Inventory A need to be able to use the services in Service Inventory B, and vice versa. How can cross-service inventory message exchanges be enabled with minimal changes to the existing service inventory architectures and without introducing new security mechanisms?

Services A, B, and C reside in Service Inventory A and Services D, E, and F reside in Service Inventory B .Service B is an authentication broker that issues WS-Trust based SAML tokens to Services A and C upon receiving security credentials from Services A and C .Service E is an authentication broker that issues WS-Trust based SAML tokens to Services D and F upon receiving security credentials from Services D and E .Service B uses the Service Inventory A identify store to validate the security credentials of Services A and C .Service E uses the Service Inventory B identity store to validate the security credentials of Services D and F .It is decided to use Service E as the sole authentication broker for all services in Service Inventories A and B .Service B is kept as a secondary authentication broker for load balancing purposes. Specifically, it is to be used for situations where authentication requests are expected to be extra time consuming in order to limit the performance burden on Service E .Even though Service B has all the necessary functionality to fulfill this new responsibility, only Service E can issue SAML tokens to other services. How can these architectures be modified to support these new requirements?

Service A provides a data access capability that can be used by a variety of service consumers. The database records accessed by Service A are classified as either private or public. There are two types of service consumers that use Service A:

Service consumers with public access permissions (allowed to access only public data records) and service consumers with private access permissions (allowed to access all data records). For performance reasons the Service A architecture uses a single database, named Database A .Each record in Database A is classified as either private or public. After Service A is invoked by a service consumer (1), it authenticates the request message using an identity store and retrieves the corresponding authorization (2, 3). Once authorized, the service consumer's request is submitted to Database A (4), which then returns the requested data (5) If the service consumer has private access permissions, all of the returned data is included in Service A's response message (6). If the service consumer has public access permissions, then Service A first filters the data in order to remove all unauthorized private data records before sending to the response message to the service consumer (6). In addition to retrieving data, Service A's data access capability can be used to update database records. An investigation recently revealed an information leakage problem that can occur when service consumers with public access permissions attempt to update the ID value of a database record The ID values of all database records (private or public) must be unique. When a service consumer with public access permissions updates a public database record with an ID value that is already assigned to a private database record, the database returns an error message describing this conflict. This error text reveals confidential information by stating that the ID value submitted by the service consumer with public access permissions already exists within a private database record. What steps can be taken to avoid this problem while preserving the requirement that all database records (private and public) have unique ID values?

Service Consumer A sends a request message with an authentication token to Service A, but before the message reaches Service A, it is intercepted by Service Agent A (1). Service Agent A validates the security credentials and also validates whether the message is compliant with Security Policy A .If either validation fails, Service Agent A rejects the request message and writes an error log to Database A (2A). If both validations succeed, the request message is sent to Service A (2B). Service A retrieves additional data from a legacy system (3) and then submits a request message to Service B Before arriving at Service B, the request message is intercepted by Service Agent B (4) which validates its compliance with Security Policy SIB then Service Agent C (5) which validates its compliance with Security Policy B .If either of these validations fails, an error message is sent back to Service A .that then forwards it to Service Agent A so that it the error can be logged in Database A (2A). If both validations succeed, the request message is sent to Service B (6). Service B subsequently stores the data from the message in Database B (7). Service A and Service Agent A reside in Service Inventory A .Service B and Service Agents B and C reside in Service Inventory B .Security Policy SIB is used by all services that reside in Service Inventory B .Service B can also be invoked by other service from within Service Inventory B .Request messages sent by these service consumers must also be compliant with Security Policies SIB and B .New services are being planned for Service Inventory A .To accommodate service inventory-wide security requirements, a new security policy (Security Policy SIA) has been created. Compliance to Security Policy SIA will be required by all services within Service Inventory A .Some parts of Security Policy A and Security Policy SIB are redundant with Security Policy SIA .How can the Policy Centralization pattern be correctly applied to Service Inventory A without changing the message exchange requirements of the service composition?

Service Consumer A sends a request message to Service A (1) after which Service A retrieves financial data from Database A (2). Service A then sends a request message with the retrieved data to Service B (3). Service B exchanges messages with Service C (4) and Service D (5), which perform a series of calculations on the data and return the results to Service A .Service A uses these results to update Database A (7) and finally sends a response message to Service Consumer A (8). Component B has direct, independent access to Database A and is fully trusted by Database A .Both Component B and Database A reside within Organization A .Service Consumer A and Services A, B, C, and D are external to the organizational boundary of Organization A .

Component B is considered a mission critical program that requires guaranteed access to and fast response from Database A .Service A was recently the victim of a denial of service attack, which resulted in Database A becoming unavailable for extended periods of time (which further compromised Component B). Additionally, Services B, C, and D have repeatedly been victims of malicious intermediary attacks, which have further destabilized the performance of Service A .How can this architecture be improved to prevent these attacks?
