Checking the security of web services configurations

摘要

Systems and methods for checking security goals of a distributed system are described. In one aspect, detailed security policies are converted into a model. The detailed security policies are enforced during exchange of messages between one or more endpoints. The one or more endpoints host respective principals networked in a distributed operating environment. The model is evaluated to determine if the detailed security policies enforce one or more security goals of at least one of the one or more endpoints.
