Web Service Security profile
Use a Web Service Security profile (WS-Security) to determine how to authenticate a web service message.
In the WS-Security profile, you can define a SOAP message that verifies whether the message comes from a known sender and that the message was not modified during transmission. This configuration provides content integrity and confidentiality for SOAP requests and responses.
Enable Web Services Security on a SOAP connection to securely send messages to and from your application.
- Creating a WS-Security profile data instance
Create a WS-Security profile data instance to securely exchange messages between your application and a web service. By configuring a SOAP message in your WS-Security profile, you can authenticate a web server by validating message senders and the integrity of messages in your application.
- Defining keystores for WS-Security profile data instances
Create a WS-Security profile to securely exchange messages between your application and a web service. Use the Keystore tab to specify the keystore data instance to use with the security profile.
- Defining inbound SOAP messages for WS-Security profile data instances
Create a WS-Security profile to securely exchange messages between your application and a web service. Use the In Flow tab to configure WS-Security on inbound SOAP messages.
- Defining outbound SOAP messages for WS-Security profile data instances
Create a WS-Security profile to securely exchange messages between your application and a web service. Use the Out Flow tab to configure WS-Security on outbound SOAP messages.
