N2  - Now a day's enterprises are implementing their WIS using web services technology by composing the web services. They are using the MDA approach to develop the WIS and UML is used as a modelling language for business process modelling. Security is not defined during the early phases of WIS development i.e. during designing the service composition and left to developers. Properly configuring security requirements for service composition is quite difficult for developers because they are not security experts; furthermore, service composition's security is cross-domain and all required information is not available at downstream phases. A Model Driven Security framework is proposed for the development of secure web services composition; where along with the business process modelling, using the UML Activity diagram, business domain expert also model the security objectives. Adding security during the design phase helps to save the time and effort during the implementation and verification of security in the SOA applications. Furthermore, specifying security requirements at abstract level, help the architectural team in choosing the different and potentially better security mechanisms. As a proof of work the proposed framework is applied to a typical business process of healthcare domain.
