Question

Answer 1

A:

You should be able to implement this using OpenSSL.

There is a tutorial on The Rare AiR on how you can compile the library for iPhone.

Hope this helps, Claus

Thanks, it seems that I can create encrypted connections with Apple's CFNetwork API. I think the complicated part of this will be creating the soap headers that WS-Security requires.

You could also have a look at the Security.framework. It should offer you some options for doing X.509 certificates as well in addition to a few types of encryption, but nowhere nearly as full fledged as OpenSSL

Thank you very much, I haven't found answers anywhere else. I will probably give OpenSSL a try.

  If it is not possible, can you please let me know which security we can implement for iPad webservices.

You can handle x.509 certificates using NSURLConnection and the methods described in the "Certificates, key, and Trust Services Reference" http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/Security/Reference/certifkeytrustservices/Reference/reference.htmlusing both NSURLConnection an these methods you will be able to manage client and server certificates on the iphone and I guess on the ipad as well. Check this sample code http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/samplecode/AdvancedURLConnections/Introduction/Intro.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/DTS40009558
