Here at Ipswitch, we strive to deliver technologies that are based on modern architectures such as SOA and patterns that live on that architecture such as EDA and WOA. We feel that this will enable our existing and future customers to leverage composition and interoperability for more agility, manageability, and control.
Like many before us, we struggle with delivering services (the technology kind) that will likely be used in ways we never intended.

This is why the recent breach of AT&T of their 3G iPad accounts isn’t particularly shocking. How do you test for vulnerabilities when you can’t even begin to understand all the use cases? The answer is simple…you can’t.
You have to give your data the value (and associated risk levels) it deserves.

This means that when someone jumps through 299 different scenarios to query your application/ interface, looking to exploit, there is another layer that is more constrained.
