face="Times New Roman" size=3>Web Services are usually associated with the 
"triumvirate" of SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI. However, over the past 18 months, REST 
Web Services have enjoyed increasing popularity. Although the theory surrounding 
REST (REpresentational State Transfer) is complex, the practice is simple: use 
long-established Web technologies instead of SOAP. REST Web Services are 
addressed using HTTP GETs and POSTs to send and receive plain-XML (as opposed to 
SOAP) documents to URLs. The so-called "mega Web Services" offered by Google, 
Amazon, and Yahoo! all feature REST interfaces which have proven to be very 
popular amongst developers, especially when compared to their SOAP-based 
equivalents. Clearly, REST Web Services have much in common with Web 
applications, but there are also important differences (for example, cookies 
have no place in the REST architecture). <BR><BR>In this talk, we examine the 
security implications of REST. We ask a number of questions:<BR><BR>- Can Web 
Application Security techniques adequately protect REST Web Services? <BR><BR>- 
Since REST Web Services cannot use WS-Security, does that mean they are 
insecure?<BR><BR>- What security guidelines can you offer to developers who are 
using REST Web Services?<BR><BR>- What do XML security vendors do to protect 
REST Web Services?</FONT><BR></SPAN></FONT></DIV>
