You are right. As you can see, the coverage of WS-Security specification is not 
comprehensive. My main objective was to illustrate use of JAX-RPC handlers for 
processing related to security and XML-Sig and XML-Enc are more appropriate for 
securing WebService messages.

You are right. As you can see, the coverage of WS-Security specification
is not 
comprehensive. My main objective was to illustrate use of JAX-RPC
handlers for 
processing related to security and XML-Sig and XML-Enc are more
appropriate for
