Embodiments of the invention provide for efficiently implementing security features over HTTP communications. In some embodiments, a security feature, such as a digital signature, can be efficiently implemented over HTTP communications. The HTTP communications are conducted in parts. The first part contains the payload data of the message. The second part, if appropriate, contains information for the digital signature, such as the digital signature itself or the result of a signature verification.
