Tuesday March 14, 2006 WSS security - new XWS providers
On latest glassfish or Sun Java System AppServer9 builds, you can observe more default providers in the domain configuration compared to my previous blog entry. This to separate the new providers with old providers supported in previous Sun JavaSystem Appserver 8.1 and maintain the backward compatibility with old developed applications.
These new providers are named as XWS_ServerProvider and XWS_ClientProvider, mainly added the following new features to the earlier providers. 1. By default username token is encrypted. 2. Dynamically determine the encryption key from the request at the server.
At application level, one can use the above providers or configure at server level by default using admin console or CLI.Enjoy using the Glassfish or Sun Java System Appserver with latest Java EE standards for your applications!

Hi,
I am able to configure the providers at server level using the admin console. How could i do it at the application level? I am working with securing an endpoint in a composite application using username authentication with symmetric keys (a feature provided by WSIT). I use Java CAPS 6. I want to know how to configure the provider for the application alone.
