Article information

If you want to publish a Tomcat-based web service in a secure manner, you may want to use Microsoft ISA Server and publish as HTTPS. As this solution is a lot more secure than others, it is tricky to implement because of the difficult handling of the X.509 certificate that is used for HTTPS. A lot of different tools from JSSE, Apache, Windows, and others are needed to successfully create a certificate and use it on ISA Server.

This article describes the necessary steps and tools.
