Conclusion

In this article, we have seen how easy it is to configure security and reliability into an existing Web service and set up default credentials to access the service. The bundled GlassFish keystore and truststore files were very useful. We used NetBeans and Metro to automatically update these files and use them immediately for development.

In Part 2 of this series, we will focus on importing specific certificates into the GlassFish keystore and truststore so that they can be used in a production environment. </article>
