A Correct answer
Explanation

SOAP body elements can be encrypted using WS-Security (Web Services Security) specification, which supports XML Encryption and XML Signature standards. These allow selective encryption of specific SOAP elements using digital signatures. SSL only encrypts the entire transport/channel. WS-Security provides end-to-end, element-level security that persists through intermediaries.
