You can add or modify the configuration details for a WS-Security binding that is configured for use with service integration bus-enabled web services. You use WS-Security bindings to secure the SOAP messages that pass between service requesters (clients) and inbound services, and between outbound services and target web services.
WS-Security bindings provide the information that the run-time environment needs to implement the WS-Security configuration (for example "To sign the body, use this key"). You receive this security binding information direct from the service requester or target service provider, in the form of an ibm-webservicesclient-bnd.xmi file for the client, and an ibm-webservices-bnd.xmi file for the target web service. You extract the information from these .xmi files, then manually enter it into the WS-Security bindings forms.
Bindings are administered independently from any web service that uses them, so you can create a binding then apply it to many web services.
