Hi all,
I have read some papers and they tell that WSE 2.0 with WS-attachments does
not encrypt the attachments ( they recommend using secure protocol like Https
with SSL to secure attachments). Now, WSE 3.0 replace WS-attachments with
MTOM, I have found that MTOM is used for transmit large binary data, but I
don't know whether we can encrypt it directly with WSE 3.0 or not.
If you have answer, plz tell me.
Thanks,

Hi Hung,

the binary data encoded with MTOM obeys all the rules that WS-*
specifcations provide. If the message is encrypted and signed, that so will
be the binary data encoded with MTOM.
