Web Services Data Encryption Clause Samples

Web Services Data Encryption. If the web service provider wants the data being exchanged between the server and the clients to be protected from other users who may be “listening” then data encryption is necessary. To this aim there are different protocols and algorithms to encrypt the data. We are going to use as a proof of concept the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. SSL is a protocol that provides security for communications between client and server by implementing encrypted data and certificate based authentication. When SSL is configured instead of using HTTP the server will use the secured HTTPS protocol. Tomcat fully supports SSL and therefore it has a tutorial showing how to do that. This procedure can be different depending on the configuration of our Tomcat. We are not going to detail the whole process but we are going to describe it. SSL is based on certificates. The server needs to have a certificate to use SSL; this certificate needs to be certified by a Certification Authority (CA) if we want to be sure no other server can use a certificate to impersonate our server. When the certificate is generated and the server configured the system is ready to encrypt the data being send between the server and the clients. Having a certificate validated by a CA is not free and it costs around 70 € per month. Users can easily see if a certificate is validated by a CA in the web browser because the HTTPS turns green when the certificate is validated and red when it is not. WSPs interested in encryption should use the Tomcat documentation or consider using another server to carry the encryption task. They should also follow the instruction of the chosen CA (e.g. ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇) to have their server certificate to be validated. The last validation cycle performed at T23 validated the functionalities of the platform v2 and the integration of the components ready at that time. On the basis of the validation report and on the feedback received by validators, improvements and additions have been made to the platform v3. Below, we review the validation conclusions and the lessons learnt reported in D7.3 (section 2.7), mainly focussing on the problematic issues, and single out the tasks and efforts made to address those issues and to improve the platform functionalities. Overall, validation was very satisfactory as most of the requirements were fulfilled and the platform proved technically functional, realized its main technical expectations. Some weaknesses however emerged. In ge...

  • Information Services Traffic 5.1 For purposes of this Section 5, Voice Information Services and Voice Information Services Traffic refer to switched voice traffic, delivered to information service providers who offer recorded voice announcement information or open vocal discussion programs to the general public. Voice Information Services Traffic does not include any form of Internet Traffic. Voice Information Services Traffic also does not include 555 traffic or similar traffic with AIN service interfaces, which traffic shall be subject to separate arrangements between the Parties. Voice Information services Traffic is not subject to Reciprocal Compensation as Local Traffic under the Interconnection Attachment. 5.2 If a Reconex Customer is served by resold Verizon Telecommunications Service or a Verizon Local Switching UNE, subject to any call blocking feature used by Reconex, to the extent reasonably feasible, Verizon will route Voice Information Services Traffic originating from such Service or UNE to the Voice Information Service platform. For such Voice Information Services Traffic, unless Reconex has entered into an arrangement with Verizon to ▇▇▇▇ and collect Voice Information Services provider charges from Reconex’s Customers, Reconex shall pay to Verizon without discount the Voice Information Services provider charges. Reconex shall pay Verizon such charges in full regardless of whether or not it collects such charges from its own Customers. 5.3 Reconex shall have the option to route Voice Information Services Traffic that originates on its own network to the appropriate Voice Information Services platform(s) connected to Verizon’s network. In the event Reconex exercises such option, Reconex will establish, at its own expense, a dedicated trunk group to the Verizon Voice Information Service serving switch. This trunk group will be utilized to allow Reconex to route Voice Information Services Traffic originated on its network to Verizon. For such Voice Information Services Traffic, unless Reconex has entered into an arrangement with Verizon to ▇▇▇▇ and collect Voice Information Services provider charges from Reconex’s Customers, Reconex shall pay to Verizon without discount the Voice Information Services provider charges. Reconex shall pay Verizon such charges in full regardless of whether or not it collects such charges from its own Customers. 5.4 Reconex shall pay Verizon such charges in full regardless of whether or not it collects charges for such calls from its own Customers. 5.5 For variable rated Voice Information Services Traffic (e.g., NXX 550, 540, 976, 970, 940, as applicable) from Reconex Customers served by resold Verizon Telecommunications Services or a Verizon Local Switching Network Element, Reconex shall either (a) pay to Verizon without discount the Voice Information Services provider charges, or (b) enter into an arrangement with Verizon to ▇▇▇▇ and collect Voice Information Services provider charges from Reconex’s Customers. 5.6 Either Party may request the other Party provide the requesting Party with non discriminatory access to the other party’s information services platform, where such platform exists. If either Party makes such a request, the Parties shall enter into a mutually acceptable written agreement for such access. 5.7 In the event Reconex exercises such option, Reconex will establish, at its own expense, a dedicated trunk group to the Verizon Information Service serving switch. This trunk group will be utilized to allow Reconex to route information services traffic originated on its network to Verizon.
