Digital Identity is at the heart of the modern business ecosystem. However, governing SOA interactions - particularly across a distributed or federated environment - creates complexity not found in typical user-machine exchanges. Separating policy creation and enforcement from service implementation can simplify SOA governance without compromising scalability, flexibility and auditability - accommodating even the most elaborate, heterogeneous IT landscapes. This Webinar will review best practices for building and operating a policy-centered, identity-driven SOA.

This Webcast, presented by Layer 7 CTO and WS-Policy co-editor, Dr. Toufic Boubez, will cover how to declaratively *define SOA Policy for SOA Governance applications.* Consistent, standards based policy definition is the first step in implementing an SOA Governance framework.
