JADE REST Services Application and SSL

You can implement security for REST‑based Web services using:

• Operating system security and Internet Information Server (IIS) for data access

• Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) for data transmission

The communication from the client to IIS has no JADE involvement. Calling with an https header from C# automatically uses SSL. When the message is received by the JADE Rest Service, it has already been decrypted by IIS and passed to JADE as clear text.

To use SSL, you first need to establish the SSL configuration within IIS, which involves configuring the SSL certificate within IIS.

1. Add the certificate to the IIS Server certificates.

2. Create a binding on the default web site for HTTPS and the certificate.

3. Turn on SSL for the JADE web site that is to be used. If no certificate is required on the client, set the Ignore option for the client setting.
