Configure UDDI Registry security

The IBM UDDI Version 3 Registry is designed to exploit the advantages of WebSphere Application Server security. The registry also supports the UDDI Version 1 and Version 2 security features and the UDDI Version 3 Security API.

For production use, it is recommended that the IBM UDDI Version 3 Registry is configured to use WebSphere Application Server security, and that use of UDDI Version 1 and Version 2 security features and the Version 3 Security API is avoided. However, for solutions with a strong preference for UDDI security, the IBM UDDI Version 3 Registry can be configured to enable this, both when WebSphere Application Server security is enabled and when it is disabled. To configure UDDI registry security, complete the following steps:

1. Follow the appropriate link for the type of configuration you wish to set up:

   • Configuring the UDDI Registry to use WebSphere Application Server security

   • Configuring the UDDI Registry to use UDDI security

2. Review the UDDI Registry security additional considerations.
