It's actually only used for WS-Security, not https.   Thus, if you aren't 
using ws-security, you should be all set to remove it.  

If you ARE using WS-Security, you MAY be able to remove it if you are using 
Java 6 with the strong encryption pack.   Many (but not all) of the algorithms 
required are in the JDK.   Thus, you may or may not be able to remove it with 
WS-Security.
