Identify the Web Services to Secure

Which web services are you planning to secure? How do they map to the SOA Security Manager policy management methods?

Begin thinking about the individual web services in your organization and the sets of operations within each web service that require the same level of protection. We recommend identifying the following:

• Logical groupings of resources, often offered by individual web services, that are associated with one or more user populations.
• Sets of individual operations within a web service that have the same security (authentication and authorization) requirements.

Note: Identifying the web services that require protection also aids in capacity planning.
