Service A provides a data access capability that can be used by a variety of service consumers. The database records accessed by Service A are classified as either private or public. There are two types of service consumers that use Service A:

Service consumers with public access permissions (allowed to access only public data records) and service consumers with private access permissions (allowed to access all data records). For performance reasons the Service A architecture uses a single database, named Database A .Each record in Database A is classified as either private or public. After Service A is invoked by a service consumer (1), it authenticates the request message using an identity store and retrieves the corresponding authorization (2, 3). Once authorized, the service consumer's request is submitted to Database A (4), which then returns the requested data (5) If the service consumer has private access permissions, all of the returned data is included in Service A's response message (6). If the service consumer has public access permissions, then Service A first filters the data in order to remove all unauthorized private data records before sending to the response message to the service consumer (6). In addition to retrieving data, Service A's data access capability can be used to update database records. An investigation recently revealed an information leakage problem that can occur when service consumers with public access permissions attempt to update the ID value of a database record The ID values of all database records (private or public) must be unique. When a service consumer with public access permissions updates a public database record with an ID value that is already assigned to a private database record, the database returns an error message describing this conflict. This error text reveals confidential information by stating that the ID value submitted by the service consumer with public access permissions already exists within a private database record. What steps can be taken to avoid this problem while preserving the requirement that all database records (private and public) have unique ID values?

Services A, B, and C reside in Service Inventory A and Services D, E, and F reside in Service Inventory B .Service B is an authentication broker that issues WS-Trust based SAML tokens to Services A and C upon receiving security credentials from Services A and C .Service E is an authentication broker that issues WS-Trust based SAML tokens to Services D and F upon receiving security credentials from Services D and E .Service B uses the Service Inventory A identify store to validate the security credentials of Services A and C .Service E uses the Service Inventory B identity store to validate the security credentials of Services D and F .It is decided to use Service E as the sole authentication broker for all services in Service Inventories A and B .Service B is kept as a secondary authentication broker for load balancing purposes. Specifically, it is to be used for situations where authentication requests are expected to be extra time consuming in order to limit the performance burden on Service E .Even though Service B has all the necessary functionality to fulfill this new responsibility, only Service E can issue SAML tokens to other services. How can these architectures be modified to support these new requirements?

Service A provides a data retrieval capability that can be used by a range of service consumers, including Service Consumer A, In order to retrieve the necessary data. Service Consumer A first sends a request message to Service A (1). Service A then exchanges request and response messages with Service B (2, 3). Service C (4, 5), and Service D (6. 7). After receiving all three response messages from Services B .C .and D, Service A assembles the collected data into a response message that it returns to Service Consumer A (8). The Service A data retrieval capability has been suffering from poor performance, which has reduced its usefulness to Service Consumer A .Upon studying the service composition architecture, it is determined that the performance problem can be partially attributed to redundant validation by service contracts for compliance to security policies. Services B and C have service contracts that contain the same two security policies. And, Service D has a service contract that contains a security policy that is also part of Service A's service contract. What changes can be made to the service contracts in order to improve the performance of the service composition while preserving the security policy compliance requirements?

Service Consumer A sends a request to Service A (1). Service A replies with an acknowledgement message (2) and then processes the request and sends a request message to Service B (3). This message contains confidential financial data. Service B sends three different request messages together with its security credentials to Services C, D, and E (4, 5, 6). Upon successful authentication, Services C, D, and E store the data from the message in separate databases (7, 8, 9) Services B, C, D, and E belong to Service Inventory A, which further belongs to Organization B .Service Consumer A and Service A belong to Organization A .The service contracts of Services A and B both comply with the same XML schema. However, each organization employs different security technologies for their service architectures. To protect the confidential financial data sent by Service A to Service B, each organization decides to independently apply the Data Confidentiality and the Data Origin Authentication patterns to establish message-layer security for external message exchanges. However, when an encrypted and digitally signed test message is sent by Service A to Service B, Service B was unable to decrypt the message. Which of the following statements describes a solution that solves this problem?

Service A exchanges messages with Service B multiple times during the same runtime service activity. Communication between Services A and B has been secured using transport-layer security. With each service request message sent to Service B (1A .IB), Service A includes an X.509 certificate, signed by an external Certificate Authority (CA). Service B validates the certificate by retrieving the public key of the CA (2A .2B) and verifying the digital signature of the X.509 certificate. Service B then performs a certificate revocation check against a separate external CA repository (3A, 3B). No intermediary service agents reside between Service A and Service B .

To fulfill a new security requirement, Service A needs to be able to verify that the response message sent by Service B has not been modified during transit. Secondly, the runtime performance between Services A and B has been unacceptably poor and therefore must be improved without losing the ability to verify Service A's security credentials. It has been determined that the latency is being caused by redundant security processing carried out by Service B .Which of the following statements describes a solution that fulfills these requirements?
