My former team has released a new guide that is getting rave reviews from people called “Improving Web Services Security: Scenarios and Implementation Guidance for WCF”.
Some juicy quotes from reviewers:
- “ I am new to WCF programming….The guide is very good, very useful and definitely saving us time. It has become the central document from which we are developing. ”
- “…. you really did a great job! I think that every WCF developer should keep your book as day by day reference…”
- “Very cool and extremely useful…. I can’t say enough good things about this … it’s an amazing work. ….”
- “Awesome, phreaking, colossal… the content is unique – there is no match of it…Very timely just as WCF becomes mainstream with my customers. … It is serious booster with real world projects…”
