Managing Impacts of Security Protocol Changes in Service-Oriented Applications

Overview This paper present a software tool and a framework for security protocol change management. While it focus on trust negotiation protocols in this paper, many of the ideas are generally applicable to other types of protocols. Trust negotiation is a flexible approach to access control that is well suited to dynamic environments typical of service-oriented applications. However, managing the evolution of trust negotiation protocols is a difficult problem that has not been sufficiently addressed, especially in situations where there are ongoing negotiations. By using the framework, the consequences of changing the protocol that applies to ongoing trust negotiations can be automatically determined.
