08102 Working Group -- Intrusion and Fraud Detection for Web Services.

Web services (WS) technology bears the promise to finally bring the power of SOA middleware to the road on a large scale and across organizational domains. Big players such as Google, Amazon, SAP, and IBM have already adopted the technol-ogy. European funding agencies are strongly believing and heavily investing into WS-related technological developments and application scenarios. We expect a growing adoption and widespread use of Web services for different application areas, among them e.g. value added service composition, Web 2.0-enhanced communication sys-tems (e.g. based on Ajax), and focused service offerings from specialized small or medium sized enterprises (SMEs).
