Notes and Warnings
-
Timestamp:
- Adds Created and Expires timestamps to WS-Security header
- Used for replay attack prevention
- Backend validates timestamp expiration
-
Time to Live:
timeToLiveis in seconds- Shorter TTL provides better security but may cause issues with clock skew
- Typical values: 60-300 seconds (1-5 minutes)
- Must be >= 0
- Performance: Timestamp adds minimal overhead. Use for necessary security.
-
Pipeline:
REQUESTpipeline adds Timestamp to outgoing requestsRESPONSEpipeline adds Timestamp to outgoing responses
- Error Handling: Invalid timeToLive causes policy validation to fail
-
Deployment: Policy changes require deployment to take effect. Set
deploy: trueor deploy manually.
