Abstract

Many information security approaches deal with service-oriented architectures by focusing on security policies, requirements and technical implementation during service design, specification and implementation phases. Nevertheless, service-oriented architectures are increasingly deployed in open, distributed and dynamic environments, which particularly require an end-to-end security at each phase of the service’s lifecycle. Moreover, the security should not only focus on services without considering the risks and threats that might be caused by elements from business activities or underlying hardware and software infrastructure. In this paper, we develop a model highlighting the dependency between elements at business, service and infrastructure levels, defining the design context. In addition, we develop a holistic approach to define a security conceptual model, including services, security risks and security policies and guides all phases in a typical design method for service-oriented architectures.
