Research on Security Architecture Based on Web Service System

Abstract

Web service is a distributed Web application model, with platform independence, openness, loose coupling and other features. These features bring convenience to application integration, which also faces many security issues, mainly for computer hardware, applications, buffer overflows, message transmission process and other security threats. XML Web services architecture strengthen the security threats defense through digital signatures, encryption, and a series of measures of WS-Security by the sender, the receiver, the key server and assertion server which consist of SOAP security with characteristics like integrity, confidentiality, etc., effectively guaranteeing the safe operation of the Web services architecture.
