<subsection name="WS-SecurityPolicy based approach">
+<p>
+The recommended way of applying WS-Security to your web services is to use
+WS-SecurityPolicy. The WS-SecurityPolicy specification defines a set of
+WS-Policy expressions that can be used to define the security requirements of
+a web service. Typically one or more policies are attached to the WSDL of a
+service, which conveys the security requirements of the service to the client.
+A WS-SecurityPolicy aware stack such as Apache CXF or Apache Axis/Rampart can
+parse the policies and configure WSS4J appropriately. This greatly simplifies
+things for the user, who then only has to supply some basic information about
+which users, CallbackHandlers, Crypto property files, etc. to use.
+</p>
+<p>
+For more information on using WS-SecurityPolicy with WSS4J, please see CXF's
+WS-SecurityPolicy page, or go to the SOAP stack sections below:
