When working with policy sets in the administrative console,
you can customize the included policies to ensure message security.
You can enable, disable, customize, add, or delete policies from a
policy set. With your policy sets, you can define policies for WS-Addressing,
WS-Security, WS-ReliableMessaging, WS-Transaction, HTTP transport, Java™ Messaging Service (JMS) transport, and
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) transport. The policies for all but WS-Security
are relatively straightforward to define.
Before you begin
You can customize the policies for custom policy sets. The
provided default policy sets cannot be edited. Make sure that you
have created a copy of the default policy set or created a completely
new policy set to specify the policies for this policy set.
