XML Security: Manage identities more effectively with SPML
Gain a basic understanding of what Service Provisioning Markup Language (SPML) is and how it works. After an explanation of SPML's role in the management of the identity lifecycle, this article guides you through an actual working SPML scenario, using OpenSPML. Along the way, the author explains the architecture and design of SPML. Ultimately, you learn to appreciate the usefulness of this technology, and are equipped to participate in the implementation of the standard.

XML Security: Ensure portable trust with SAML
The Security Assertion Markup Language, or SAML, addresses the long-felt need to provide a mechanism that transfers information about entities between various cooperating domains without the need for those domains to lose the ownership of that information. The information exchanged could be assertions related to a subject or authentication information. This is also known as single sign-on.

XML Security: Control information access with XACML
Providing the right people with the right access to information is as important as (if not more important than) having the information in the first place. eXtensible Access Control Markup Language -- or XACML -- provides a mechanism to create policies and rules for controlling access to information. In this article, author Manish Verma continues his series on XML security issues by showing you how to incorporate XACML into your own applications.

XML security: Implement security layers, Part 1
As a format for exchanging information over the Internet, XML's popularity is continuing to grow -- and one of the key issues associated with information exchange is security. No information exchange format is complete without a mechanism for ensuring the security and reliability of the information. This is the first in a series of articles by Manish Verma that will discuss the technologies that play a crucial role in securing XML. This article focuses on the basic plumbing technologies, defining security in an XML context, XML canonicalization, and PKI infrastructure, and providing a step-by-step guide to generating keys. Part 2 will discuss XML encryption and XML signature. This series will give you a practical grasp of the basic technology used for securing XML messages.

XML Security: Implement security layers, Part 2
A host of emerging technologies, such as Web services, use XML extensively for data exchange. As a result, the security of XML, while in transit as well as when in storage, assumes very high importance. This series explores the technologies that help make XML secure. Part 1 covered the basic plumbing technologies required for XML security. This article builds on that base, covering the core technologies required for XML security -- XML encryption and XML signature. It also goes through the step-by-step process of using these technologies to secure an XML message.
