    REST in SOA security stands for? - ProProfs

    REST in SOA security stands for?

    • Representational State Transfer

    • Representative State Transfer

    • Recapture State Transfer

    • Representational State Transmission

    Correct Answer
    A. Representational State Transfer
    Explanation
    REST in SOA security stands for Representational State Transfer. REST is an architectural style that is commonly used in web services and is based on a set of principles and constraints. It emphasizes a stateless, client-server communication model where resources are identified by URLs and can be accessed and manipulated using standard HTTP methods. RESTful services are widely used in Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) to provide interoperability and scalability in distributed systems.

    Which of the following is one of the features of SOA security XML gateways? - ProProfs

    Which of the following is one of the features of SOA security XML gateways?

    • System Analysis

    • Facial Recognition

    • Pattern recognition

    • Decryption

    Correct Answer
    A. Pattern recognition
    Explanation
    Pattern recognition is one of the features of SOA security XML gateways. This feature allows the gateway to analyze and identify patterns in incoming XML messages, helping to detect and prevent potential security threats. By recognizing patterns, the gateway can apply appropriate security measures, such as access control, encryption, or authentication, to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of the data being transmitted within a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) environment.

    What is an extension to SOAP to apply security to Web service? - ProProfs

    What is an extension to SOAP to apply security to Web service?

    • WS-SecurityPolicy

    • SAMlL

    • WS-Security

    • XML

    Correct Answer
    A. WS-Security
    Explanation
    WS-Security is an extension to SOAP that provides a framework for applying security to web services. It defines a set of standards and protocols for securing the communication between web services and clients. WS-Security allows for message integrity, confidentiality, and authentication, ensuring that the data exchanged between parties is protected from unauthorized access or tampering. It provides a flexible and interoperable solution for implementing security in web services.

    Which body provides the regulatory certification to XML gateway SOA security? - ProProfs

    Which body provides the regulatory certification to XML gateway SOA security?

    • Federal Web services

    • Internet Defence Service

    • Federal Information Processing Standards

    • Center for Internet Security

    Correct Answer
    A. Federal Information Processing Standards
    Explanation
    The Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) provides the regulatory certification to XML gateway SOA security. FIPS is a set of standards and guidelines issued by the U.S. federal government for various aspects of information security, including encryption algorithms, cryptographic modules, and security protocols. These standards ensure that federal agencies and organizations adhere to specific security requirements, including those related to XML gateway SOA security.

    The following are standards that focuses on the security and identity management of SOA implementations that use Web services, except? - ProProfs

    The following are standards that focuses on the security and identity management of SOA implementations that use Web services, except?

    • WS-Security

    • SAML

    • WS-SecureConversation

    • Web secure

    Correct Answer
    A. Web secure
    Explanation
    The given standards, WS-Security, SAML, and WS-SecureConversation, all focus on the security and identity management of SOA implementations that use Web services. However, "web secure" is not a recognized standard in this context.

    One of the content-based threats affecting XML within an SOA is? - ProProfs

    One of the content-based threats affecting XML within an SOA is?

    • SQL Injection

    • Phishing

    • Malware

    • Cross-Site Scropping

    Correct Answer
    A. SQL Injection
    Explanation
    SQL Injection is a content-based threat that can affect XML within an SOA. It involves maliciously injecting SQL code into a query, exploiting vulnerabilities in the application's database layer. This can lead to unauthorized access, data manipulation, or even data loss. By injecting SQL commands into XML data, an attacker can bypass security measures and gain control over the application's database. Therefore, SQL Injection poses a significant threat to the integrity and security of XML-based systems within an SOA architecture.

    The software solutions enforcing identity and security for the REST based web services, is known as? - ProProfs

    The software solutions enforcing identity and security for the REST based web services, is known as?

    • XML gateway

    • SOAP

    • WSSS

    • XLl

    Correct Answer
    A. XML gateway
    Explanation
    XML gateway is the correct answer because it is a software solution that provides identity and security enforcement for REST based web services. It acts as a mediator between the client and the server, handling authentication, authorization, and encryption of data. XML gateway ensures that only authorized users can access the web services and protects the data exchanged between the client and server from unauthorized access or tampering.

    In SOA security, AON is a network device that aid what? - ProProfs

    In SOA security, AON is a network device that aid what?

    • Computer to computer application integration

    • Computer to cloud application integration

    • Service to service application integration

    • Computer to service application integration

    Correct Answer
    A. Computer to computer application integration
    Explanation
    AON (Application-Oriented Networking) is a network device that aids in computer to computer application integration. It helps in facilitating seamless communication and data transfer between different computer systems within a network. AON devices provide protocols and services that enable efficient integration of applications running on different computers, ensuring smooth and secure data exchange.

    The attack that affects the ability to pull in entities which are defined in a DTD is known as? - ProProfs

    The attack that affects the ability to pull in entities which are defined in a DTD is known as?

    • XPath Injection

    • Capture-replay

    • XDoS

    • XML External Entity

    Correct Answer
    A. XDoS
    Explanation
    XDoS refers to XML Denial of Service, which is an attack that targets the ability to pull in entities defined in a DTD (Document Type Definition). This attack can overload the server by exploiting the XML parsing vulnerability, causing it to consume excessive resources and become unresponsive. By understanding the vulnerability in DTD processing, an attacker can manipulate the XML input to trigger the attack and disrupt the targeted system's functionality.
