| Encrypting SOAP Messages |
| MSDN |
| One of the key concerns for developers working with Web Services is security. Because the data is sent in plain text and is routed across the Internet to reach its final destination, anyone can potentially view the message exchange. In the case of the example above, this may not be an issue. However, what if the exchange consisted of a request to a bank, and the response contained a list of account numbers and balances, or perhaps a request that returned something even more interesting, such as a credit card number? This article discusses techniques for encrypting SOAP messages. |
