BOSTON and BERLIN, September 21, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Crosscheck Networks, Inc. (http://www.crosschecknet.com/) today announced that CEO Mamoon Yunus and CTO Jason Macy will participate in two sessions, and the company will showcase its simulation, testing, and security product suite in Booth # 13, at the International SOA Cloud Symposium (http://soasymposium.com/). The third and second annual co-located events, designed to explore modern service technologies and best practices, will take place October 5-6 in Berlin, Germany.

In Requirements for Extending Enterprise SOA to Public Clouds (http://soasymposium.com/agenda2010.php), Yunus will examine federated SOA as the foundation for a robust enterprise-to-cloud governance platform, and extending to public clouds as a logical evolution of enterprise infrastructure. The session, taking place on Tuesday, October 5 at 1:15 p.m. CEST, will address several key concepts that will help IT executives properly assess which applications to migrate from the enterprise to a cloud including:

- The basics of federated SOA as a necessary pre-requisite for extending an enterprise to the cloud; - Analysis techniques for selecting IaaS vendors that suit corporate policies and technology requirements; - Understanding run-time and management issues in building and maintaining an enterprise-to-cloud gateway.

Also, on Tuesday, October 5 at 2:15 p.m. CEST Macy will present SOA Threat Modelling: Attacking and Defending REST, XML and SOAP-based Services (http://soasymposium.com/agenda2010.php). For successful services-based application integration projects, ease-of-system integration without compromising security is paramount. However, typical enterprise threat analysis focuses on network security, but lacks knowledge of REST, XML or SOAP. As such, during this session, Macy will discuss how to identify SOA security threats including SQL Injection, Denial of Service, SwA Malware and XSD Mutation. Additionally, attendees will learn counter-measure techniques for effectively mitigating risk exposure.

The International SOA Cloud Symposium is happy to welcome Crosscheck Networks as a sponsor to our third edition, said Gert van de Donk, International SOA Cloud Symposium Team. In addition to sharing their knowledge in the extensive conference program, Crosscheck Networks will showcase their solutions in the exhibition area. Especially seen is the extra attention to Cloud Computing this year, a welcome addition to our partner list.
