WCF bindings/security configuration for Intranet that uses Mac and Windows?

What bindings and security configurations are best for an environment with Windows and Mac Computers?

Solution

  • BasicHttpBinding will probably have the greatest reach. Just about every platform supports it, since the data is simply sent as an HTTP POST to a specific Uri -- any platform which has a web browser can use this binding.

    You can do an HTTPs binding with BasicHttpBinding as well -- so you can still secure your data. You can also use security like TransportWithMessageCredential to provide username/password validation.
