Ty secureWS: An integrated web service security solution based on java

Abstract

In this paper we propose an integrated XML web service security solution based on Java. The goal of the proposed solution is guaranteeing confidentiality, integrity, and non-repudiation in using web services. It provides flexibility as its security functions are implemented in security handlers instead of modifying web services engine. It also supports extensibility since it has been developed based on international standards such as WS-Security, XKMS, XML Encryption, and XML Signature specifications. The proposed solution provides clients and servers in the business to business environments with confidence and security.
