4.2.4 Does CORBA security guarantee that the request and reply are not tampered and not intercepted on their way between the client and the target?

(July, 1998): Both of these levels of protection are catered for by CORBA's Security service. What a vendor provides is its own choice, often subject to relevant legislation. (Note that the entire CORBA Security service is a service and thus not a mandatory part of a CORBA [ed: Core] implementation.)
