 COMMON SERVICES SPECIFICATIONS - ACORD SECURITY PROFILES
ACORD Security Profiles V1.1.0Oct 2006
The purpose of the Security Profiles is to extend the ACORD Messaging Service specification to securely protect the content of SOAP messages and describe the process needing implementation in sufficient detail that the technical staff of members will be able to implement these security features. In addition to describing the process of protecting message content, this document recommends security algorithms, provide examples of secure messages, and direct the reader to a large number of supporting documents that provide either additional detail, or define the standards in greater detail.
