Introduction

WSS4J can be used for securing web services deployed in virtually any application server, but it includes special support for Axis. WSS4J ships with handlers that can be used in Axis-based web services for an easy integration. These handlers can be added to the service deployment descriptor (wsdd file) to add a WS-Security layer to the web service. This is a step by step tutorial for deploying a simple service with Username Token.
