SOA and Web Services have become central elements of enterprise traffic, and Web 2.0 applications using XML have become commonplace.

At RSA 2008, LSI demonstrated several responses to these threats and confirmed that fully networked, packet-oriented processing techniques combined with multicore platforms and an XML hardware accelerator can secure XML traffic at multi-gigabit rates. This paper examines these techniques and presents a logical and coherent argument for deployment of an effective threat processing environment for the high-speed enterprise.
