<div class="jive-rendered-content"><p>Hi Matt,</p><p>WS-Security is configurable in Apache CXF in different ways: 1) annotation (server side) 2) spring descriptor (client and server side) 3) direct CXF api usage (client side) 4) policy engine (client and server side).</p><p>The JBossWS preferred method for configuring ws-security is using policies, but the other approaches are still usable.</p><p>Spring is not installed by default on JBoss AS 7 and not strictly required when using jbossws-cxf because it's actually used for configuration only, and pretty much anything can be configured differently (see [1] and subpages). You can still install Spring in the org.springframework.spring module (either manually or using the jbossws-cxf install) and use it, if it's your only acceptable approach.</p><p>To be honest, achieving a completely agnostic configuration when using WS-Security is not completely doable; the policy approach is probably the closest one to the target, if you can use that.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p><p>[1] <a class="jive-link-external-small" href="https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/JBWS/Advanced+User+Guide">https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/JBWS/Advanced+User+Guide</a></p></div>
