Security is a critical part of any application. Applications have to be secured against disclosure of confidential information, modification or destruction of data, misappropriation of resources, and compromise of accountability. Applications can be secured by implementing security concepts, such as authentication, authorization, integrity, confidentiality, and non-repudiation. The Overview of Java Application Security (WJO-1113) course provides a description of basic security concepts, services, and technologies. The course explains the security challenges in the application, transport, and message layers of applications. Students also learn about security features provided by Java technologies, and how these features can be used in the web-tier, in tiers based on Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) technology, and in web services.The Overview of Java Application Security course does not include hands-on implementation of Java technologies to secure applications.
The Web Services Infrastructure and Organizations course discusses web services, web services infrastructure,and the web services models such as the WS model. In addition, the course explains the Java EE 5 Web Services APIs. The course also describes web services organizations, such as W3C, WS-I, OASIS, and JCP.
The Overview of XML course provides students with an understanding of developing and using Extensible Markup Language (XML) documents. In this course, students learn the core concepts of XML, Document Type Definition (DTD), XML schemas, and XML processing. This course concludes by explaining the role of XML Path Language (XPath), XSL Transformations (XSLT), XML Query (XQuery), XML Linking (XLink), and XML Pointer Language (XPointer) in accessing and manipulating XML data.

I recently came across the three session presentation on SSL Cert installation, configuration and troubleshooting demonstration at the IBM site. It goes in details from creating kdb files to troubleshooting the issues related to SSL Certs on a WebSphere/HTTP Server setup.
Session 1
This IBM WebSphere Support Technical Exchange is designed to demonstrate how to use the IBM key management utility to create keyfiles, certificate signing requests(CSR) and self-signed personal certs. This exchange is a general overview of the certificate chain relationship and certificate authorities, along with importing and exporting public and private keys.
Session 2
This IBM WebSphere Support Technical Exchange is designed to demonstrate how to configure the Secure Sockets Layer within IBM HTTP Server V6.0 and higher. Specifically, this session will teach how to enable multiple SSL virtualhosts on port 443 and how to limit encryption at 128bit or higher for optimal security. You will also receive practical examples on how to automatically redirect non-SSL clients over SSL.
Session 3
This WebSphere® Support Technical Exchange is designed to demonstrate specific Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) debugging techniques. Also to see first hand how SSL tracing is enabled and how to log SSL request and certificate information in the web server’s access log. There will be a demonstration on troubleshooting steps for analyzing and interpreting SSL handshake messages in the web server’s error log.
