InteProxy - Security extension for unsecure OWS clients to secure spatial data infrastructures
InteProxy is a tool that adds secure transmission via SSL as well as user authentication to those OWS-based applications that do not support these security features.
Currently, almost no application supports security features.
OWS stands for OGC Web Services which are the basis for Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDIs). OGC stands for Open Geospatial Consortium, the organization that specifies the web services. Examples for these services are WMS (Web Map Service) and WFS (Web Feature Service).

On the Server-side InteProxy requires a SSL-enabled Web-Server and a so-called OWS-Proxy (deegree OWS-Proxy) or a service based on standard HTTP Basic Authentication.
InteProxy is in beta-phase, but has been tested successfully with OpenJUMP, QGIS and OpenLayers. WMS, WFS and WFS-T proved to work in conjunction with deegree OWSProxy. Many more clients should work out of the box and compatibility with other OWS-Proxies could be added.
