An Enhanced Description Assistant for SOAP Message Exchange in SOA

When SOAP messages carry vital business information, their integrity and confidentiality needs to be preserved. Concerns have been raised due to XML Rewriting attacks on SOAP message which create a foundation for typical faults in SOAP messages and make it vulnerable to use in Web Service environment. We have already provided a solution to tackle this problem on integrity of SOAP messages in earlier works by proposing a system called System Description Assistant. That system was able to identify and fix typical faults in SOAP messages. This paper mainly reflects future directions of our previous researches and enhances previous ones by adding more comprehensive functions to detect and possibly fix faults occurred due to XML rewriting attacks.
