You're a developer, you love security, right? No one can read your XML messages or tamper with their contents, right? Ok, I know many developers hate security because it's "hard" and it "gets in the way" of getting their already late projects done on time. Security is here to stay whether you like it or not! The good news for web service developers is that the WCF team has put a great deal of work baking security into the framework so you don't have to be a security expert to "get security right". This talk will demonstrate techniques in WCF that all of us overworked and underpaid developers can use to spend less time securing and more time building the web service.
