Abstract:

The service-oriented architecture paradigm slowly matures towards some
kind of "Web Service Internet" where basically everybody may use the
services others provide. Though this evolution enables lots of
opportunities for electronic business, it also induces many new security
issues to consider. One important security threat to SOA consists in
request floodings, which—being intentional or accidental—may rapidly
lead to Denial-of-Service and other kinds of malfunctions.
In this presentation, I will introduce a basic model for describing
flooding attacks in general, reconsider some of the known flooding
attacks on Web Services, advance to flooding issues of basic service
compositions, and finally derive some conclusions for security
considerations of service-oriented architectures in general.
