If you have decryption keys then write an helper function using bcrypt-ruby lib’s general crypto algorithms. Also don’t store keys in source code but in environment.

Well the specifics will depend on how the response was encrypted, but ruby’s openssl library contains most of the raw crypto stuff you’re likely to need. There are also some higher level libraries that are supposed to be easier to work with (eg ezcrypto) although I’m not very familiar with these.

Thanks all for reply.

API team is not going to provide any information but they said following things will resolve our issue:-

  1.                    Create an encryption DLL and add it to

the SoapExtension section 2. Tell clients to purchase SSL certificate otherwise the data that is being transferred will be ‘in the clear’

  1.              Create your own SSL certificate and

install on client’s computer

SSL certificate sound good. I am using “savon 2”.
