Before you use it
-----------------

[](#before-you-use-it)

**DO NOT USE THIS LIBRARY UNLESS YOU ARE INTIMATELY FAMILIAR WITH THE WS-SECURITY SPECIFICATION.**

If you are not familiar with the WS-Security specification and are simply looking to connect your application using WS-Security, you should probably use [SimpleSAMLphp](https://www.simplesamlphp.org) and, more specically, the adfs-module.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

- Install with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md), run the following command in your project:

```
composer require simplesamlphp/ws-security:dev-master
```
