End-to-end information flow security for web services orchestration

Multi-party interactions in Web Service (WS) composition are hard to managed and difficult to design and verify, especially while end-to-end information flow security (IFS) must be respected. Usually, IFS is guaranteed for a data originator and ultimate recipient WS, however inter-organizational service compositions involve partners that do not necessarily share the same level of security, especially for data they do not generate nor process themselves.
