Transport Level Security using HTTPSP6 Web Services supports the use of HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer) to achieve secure communication at the transport layer of the OSI Model. All Oracle P6 Web Services support both the HTTPS and HTTP protocols. Although you can use either protocol when using the web services, Oracle strongly recommends using HTTPS to call the Authentication service since you must specify a Username and Password when you call the Authentication service's Login operation. Refer to Consuming P6 Web Services over HTTPS (SSL) From Java for additional details about using HTTPS with the Java programming language. |
