|  | Section 8. Conclusion
In this tutorial, we demonstrated how to create a Web service provider using JAX-WS annotations. Then we showed you how to build a matching consumer and how to test the client- to-server communications. Next, we demonstrated how to create a custom policy set, which we showed you how to customize with personalized asymmetric keys, before once again testing the client and server pair. Additionally, we showed you how to monitor the data flowing between the client and the server, and verify that in fact the SOAP messages are being encrypted and protected by the customized policy set you created and associated with the service consumer and provider pair.
While this tutorial was designed to teach and instruct, the steps taken are valid production-level configuration options that employ strong cryptography for encryption and protection.
