Sure there is SSL in most platforms except those systems that are still stuck @ V5.1 like the Tandem. Visit the IBM MQSeries site they have all the information you need there!

SSL will encrypt messages as they move between queue managers.

It does nothing to encrypt messages that are sitting on queues.

There is no "inbuilt" mechanism to handle that for you. Unless you buy Tivoli Access Manager as part of a bundle with MQSeries - then it's sort of "inbuilt".

There are 2 ways to do it yourself in java:

1) sub-class the base MQ or JMS classes, override methods to encrypt/decrypt the message content. This requires modification of your code to instantiate your subclass instead of the regular class.

2) AOP can do it transparently to your code, however it does require substituting the MQ/JMS jars with your own, see this:
