Enterprise Ajax Security with ICEfaces

The question is simple:  Can enterprise application developers deliver Rich Internet Applications using Ajax techniques, but do so in a secure and cost-effective manner?

The evidence is mounting:  The Yammer1 and MySpace2 worms are two early examples that illustrate Ajax-based implementations are susceptible to attack, and these attacks have the particularly nasty characteristic of being completely invisible to the users being violated, and thus can proliferate at astounding rates.

The solutions are sparse:  While the Ajax world is exploding with new capabilities and wiz-bang features, technology providers have been derelict in addressing fundamental security issues in the offerings they promote, leaving a formidable security challenge for the application developer to address.

In this paper we will examine some of the fundamental security issues related to client-centric Ajax techniques,and will show how these issues can be overcome using a server-centric approach based on Java EE and ICEfaces.
