Part 5 - How to build "Transport-Level" security into your Service to secure the communication between the Service and the Client. In essence, this workshop shows you how to build a WCF Service that will work over HTTPS. In Part 6 of the series, I plan to show how to secure your Service/Client communications by encrypting the message itself with wsSecurity, so stay tuned. If you’ve never done SSL (HTTPS) within ASP.NET, I walk you through the entire process (using a test certificate).

Unlike a lot of How-to documents on the subject, I am making sure that this series is full of:

  • Easy to follow screen-shots (of the IDE and Source Code),
  • What you need to do in each step and most importantly why,
  • The “Before” and “After” source code (with comments).

If you learn by doing (and seeing screen-shots of how your code should look) then hopefully you will find this useful.
