Brain-friendly SOA security

Prabath Siriwardena, who leads all of WSO2's security work, including the Identity Server product, recently gave a summer school program on SOA security. These slides give the best no-nonsense, to-the-point, simple explanation of all of security that I have ever seen. Prabath covers authentication, authorization, WS-Security, WS-Security Policy, XACML, OpenID, Information Cards, WS-Trust, STS and more in one smooth story style presentation:

Great intro to OpenID

Oshani Seneviratne, an ex-WSO2 intern, currently a Ph.D. student at MIT working with Tim Berners-Lee, has pointed to Prabath's great intro to OpenID.

Very cool talk indeed; if you want to learn what OpenID is this is a great set of slides to walk through.

Going beyond passwords ....

Jonathan has written an interesting blog about going beyond passwords. I should note that WSO2 recently joined both the OpenID Foundation and the recently formed Information Card Foundation.

We of course have (the only 100% open source?) complete offering (relying party code, issuers and everything) that supports both OpenID and Cardspace: the WSO2 Identity Solution.
