HTTP SSL Configuration collection

Use this page to configure transport-level Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) security. Use this configuration when a Web service is a client to another Web service.

Use transport-level security to enable HTTP SSL (or HTTPS). Transport-level security can be enabled or disabled independently from message-level security. Because transport-level security provides minimal security, use message-level security when security is essential to the Web service application.
