Does iMQ encrypt messages?

A friend who is consulting on app architecture for a bank asked

me if iMQ can encrypt and/or sign messages with certificates.

Apparently MQseries does not and it is a big work to add that on top.

This is for curiosity - this is not a deal we can enter - but this friend

is a middleware consultant on bigs projects so I would like to give

him the info.

iMQ does not individually encrypt or sign messages at this time.

If your friend is interested in individually encrypting or signing

messages with iMQ, it will need to be done by the developer on

each individual message.

However, messages can be securely transmitted through ssl or

https to our broker. Messages transmitted with these protocols

are encrypted during transit (NOTE: we do not use the

certificates for authentication, just encryption)
