Members
Member name | Description | |
---|---|---|
None | The SOAP message is not secured during transfer. This is the default behavior. | |
Transport | Security is provided using HTTPS. The service must be configured with SSL certificates. The SOAP message is protected as a whole using HTTPS. The service is authenticated by the client using the service’s SSL certificate. | |
TransportWithMessageCredential | This mode provides integrity, confidentiality, and server authentication using HTTPS. The service must be configured with a certificate. Client authentication is provided by SOAP message security.
This mode is applicable when the user is authenticating with a UserName or Certificate credential and there is an existing HTTPS deployment for securing message transfer. |
|
TransportCredentialOnly | This mode provides only HTTP-based client authentication. It does not provide message integrity or confidentiality. |
Remarks
The default behavior for BasicHttpBinding is None. To specify another value, use the BasicHttpBinding(BasicHttpSecurityMode) constructor.
