AmberPoint Security Expert Featured in SOA Webinar

AmberPoint Director of Security Product Strategy Andrew Brown to Discuss Real-World SOA Security

Oakland, CA, February 27, 2008 -- AmberPoint executive Andrew Brown will participate in a roundtable webinar discussion today hosted by ebizQ. The discussion will address the importance of SOA security, warn of attacks to watch out for, and provide best practices for building and implementing secure applications.

What:
SOA Security – The Real Deal, or Much Ado about Nothing?
SOA is everywhere as major organizations increasingly re-architect their applications around industry standards and common communications protocols. Yet as the data, processing and presentation layers are increasingly separated, what are the security issues inherent to the service-oriented architecture? Are there new issues that create severe exposures, or is this just another vendor hype-fest focused on trying to find a problem for solutions?

The panel discussion, moderated by Security Incite analyst Mike Rothman, will provide a no-holds barred look at SOA Security now and in the future. The following topics will be covered:

• New attack vectors introduced by SOA


• The best place to implement SOA Security


• Strategies to build secure SOA applications


• Leverage with existing identity and access management

Who:

• Mike Rothman, President and Principal Analyst, Security Incite


• Andrew Brown, Director of Security Product Marketing, AmberPoint


• Gunnar Peterson, Managing Principal, Arctec Group


• Fred Etemadieh, Chair of The Open Group SOA-Security project, Open Group
