Security (Magic xpa 2.x)

Note:

Contact your vendor to find out the required security measures.

If a client module exists, the Security tab is enabled with the following properties:

Property

Description

Security Level

Determines whether the security level is Transport, WS-Security, or None.

The None level gives no security. However, you can still provide basic authentication by for example using a header that requires a username and password.

See How Do I Send a SOAP Header with the Request and Get the Result?

The Transport level protects the whole HTTP communication. You use SSL to do this.

See Consuming Web Services Over SSL with Magic xpa

The WS-Security level works on the SOAP level. Communication is not encrypted, but some parts of the request are hidden, encrypted or digitally signed.

Authentication Type

Determines whether the authentication type is Kerberos, SSL, Digest, Basic, or None.
The Authentication Type is only enabled when the Security Level property is set to Transport or WS-Security.
The Kerberos and SSL options are only available if the Security Level is set to Transport. Digest, Basic, and None are available when the Security Level is set to WS-Security.

The following properties are enabled when the Security Level property is set to WS-Security:

Property

Description

Encryption Algorithm

Specifies the algorithm used for encryption.

Signing Algorithm

Specifies the algorithm used for digital signing.

Include Timestamps

This check box is enabled only when the Security Level is set to WS-Security. When this check box is selected, a timestamp is added to the SOAP request.

Operation

The name of the SOAP operation.

Request

Determines how to secure the SOAP request (for a specific operation).

Response

Determines how the SOAP response is secured (for a specific operation).
