Review on the Security Perspectives of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)

Service Oriented Architecture is basically a service oriented approach in which all the services or application components are interconnected through the use of a network. This makes it possible for the services to interact with one another without any human intervention. But as is the case with any such system, a security architecture is to be adopted. This paper provides an insight to the security aspects of a Service Oriented Architecture. The various frameworks and protocols that could be used in such a scenario are discussed as well as the security architecture that could be designed to avoid bottlenecks.
