Abstract

Enterprises and governments world wide are discovering that traditional network protection and infrastructure systems lack the functionality, performance, and operational efficiencies to provide a cost effective and scalable XML Threat Protection solution. This paper describes the unique security challenges that XML Web Services present to traditional network protection and infrastructure solutions such as Firewalls (FW), Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), and Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS). These challenges include:

• Concerns with the span of functionality attempted by XML Proxy FW


• Impact of XML Proxy FW on enterprise organizations and operations


• Concerns with specific limitations of XML Proxy FW implementations

To address these concerns, the paper establishes a new XML Web Services Network IPS as an important element to address key XML Web Services threat and security requirements. With this next generation IPS, the paper defines a new approach for XML security and threat protection with a logical separation between:

XML Web Services Trust Enablement: The ability for Web Service applications to proactively protect data and communication

XML Web Services Threat Protection: The ability for Web Service network infrastructure to protect against known and unknown XML network threats that could impact the integrity of the Web Services application

This paper concludes that this new approach, based on a next-generation Intel® XML NIPS, offers a more effective XML Web Services security solution that is easier to implement and operate.
