Forum Systems released the Forum Java Web Services Security (JWSS) Software Development Kit (SDK) version 1.0 offering developers a comprehensive library of application programming interfaces (API's) to leverage in coding Web Services applications. The JWSS SDK v1.0 addresses the need for security to be enforced within the application itself in order to ensure privacy and integrity of Web Services and SOA applications.

CIO, CTO & Developer Resources

Forum JWSS SDK v1.0 allows developers to administer and apply security policies within J2EE compliant Application Servers using a declarative security model and API's for XML message authentication and authorization. The Application Server is then responsible for applying these security constraints to the code at runtime. Adding XML security within business logic prevents transactions from bypassing third-party enforcement points that would violate regulatory compliance or work flow security. Companies should complement this developer-centric approach with an "interception" model using a SOA Gateway or XML Firewall within a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) for a global and scalable SOA security and acceleration strategy.

"There are business applications in which security must be enforced at the exact location where information is being processed for privacy reasons," said Walid Negm, vice president of marketing for Forum Systems. "In certain financial services and government settings, the origin of messages must be verified at the point of consumption to ensure that they were not physically intercepted. When using XML Encryption within the application, Forum's JWSS SDK v1.0 equips the developer with XML security functionality to decipher and verify the message contents," Negm added.

	Looks interesting. Definitely see a need for this type of tool. Wonder how it compares to XWS Security in the Java Web Services Developer Pack. More thoughts here... http://thluu.blogspot.com/2006/06/java-sdk-for-web-services-security.html
