Subject: RE: [ws-rx] New Issue: security profiles


Gil:
Sorry, I'm a bit late to the party, but exactly what are we protecting?
Surely, it's not the messages themselves as they can be protected by the
standard WS-Security mechanisms.  Is it the framing messages: CreateSequence, etc.
or it is something else?

All the best, Ashok

Subject: [ws-rx] New Issue: security profiles

The WS-RX TC Charter requires that WS-RM support the “efficient preservation of the integrity of reliable contexts by composition with WS-Security or other SOAP security mechanisms”. The charter also states that “While composition with other specifications is a goal of the TC, it is also a goal to leave the specifics of how that composition is achieved outside the scope of this TC.” This proposal attempts to satisfy these two requirements by defining a set of non-normative profiles for composing WS-RM with commonly used web services security mechanisms. The purpose is to aid in the implementation and deployment of interoperable services and applications that utilize secure, reliable SOAP messaging systems.
 
Proposal: Add the attached text as a new chapter to the WS-RM specification following Chapter 5 (Security Threats and Requirements)
