What is the use of WCF Service

Here are some points for usage of WCF Service:
  • Microsoft Windows Communication Foundations (WCF) provide security features for any application.

  • The key security features in WCF: Auditing, Authentication, Authorization, Confidentiality, and Integrity.

  • Transfer data from client to server and server to client with security using HTTPS, TCP, Named Pipes and MSMQ.
  • Transfer data or message with encrypted mode from one point to another using WCF.

  • It provides end-to-end security because message security directly encrypts and signs the message; having intermediaries does not break the security.

  • Message security is transport-independent and can be used with any transport protocol.
