+ Download 1.0
+ Key Features
+
+ - SOAP message encryption : Allows different parts of a SOAP message to be encrypted to keep the confidentiality of the message
+ - SOAP message signature : Allows different parts of a SOAP message to be signed to keep the integrity of the message

+ - Digested password
+
Allows users to send Username tokens for authentication purposes as per Web services security username token profile
+
+ - Ability to send Timestamp tokens : Allows users to add timestamps to their SOAP messages in order to ensure the freshness
+ - WS-Security Policy (spec 1.1) Policy based configurations as per WS-Security Policy : Allows users to express their security related requirements and constraints
+- Replay detection support
+- Improvements to the context model
+- Authentication module implementation
+- Credentials module implementation
+- Improvements to Key/Certificate loading mechanisms
