Fine-grained access control using XACML in C# applications and the .Net framework
Background When I talk to customers, I see an increase in interest in XACML for the .Net framework and the C# language. Historically, all XACML implementations have been in Java, most of them stemming from SunXACML. It is the case for instance of WSO2’s offering, SICSACML, and of course Axiomatics’ Policy Server. Support for XACML in C# Axiomatics and other companies have since released .Net PDPs and cover the space fairly well. In addition, it is possible to develop WS clients to SOAP-based PDPs regardless of the technology used. A simple tutorial The tutorial hereafter focuses on a C# example built using svcutil and the Axiomatics Policy Server’s SOAP-based PDP. With this code, it is therefore possible to invoke the […]
