Is there a way to find out if the web service has security?
I have a web service: http: //machine001/Services/conversionService.asmx
This web service has one method in it called convert (string pInput).
I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to figure out, without logging into machine001 and without calling the convert method, if this web service has security.
If I can reach http: //machine001/Services/conversionService.asmx see the service description, create a proxy class and instantiate a web service object from whatever client means there is no security?

Use your browser and follow the link:
http: //machine001/Services/conversionService.asmx? wsdl
And see if the ad description contains WSE Security. And for you, the last paragraph, yes, if you can do all of this and you haven't done anything else to authenticate, it's not secure.
