SOA Security: Don't forget Identity and Access Management

"The big challenge with SOA is that a key part of its appeal also happens to be the source of its IT management Achilles heel. SOA by definition is loosely coupled, highly granular, and often widely distributed and multi-step. In addition it can combine both internal and external services, some implementation dependent, some platform independent. Unfortunately, this same "loose coupling" poses a challenge for anyone concerned with security and management at an enterprise level. "
