Publish web service for external partner | Best Practise

Hi,

I want to give an external application access to specific data in NAV.
I would like to use NAV web service for this. My NAV version is 2015.
I don't want to use any other application than NAV to fullfill this requirement.

I am not sure how to set up my NAV correctly to allow a secure connection from the external application.
So far I always only integrated internal applications.
Is there a Best Practise that you could recommend?
  • Which Authentification method should I use? Windows or NAVUserPassword or doesn't it matter?
  • Do I need a certificate to have proper security? Is a self-signed ok or do I need a bought one?
  • Do I have to set up SSL for web services?

I would appreciate any documentation, recommendation or help.
Thanks in advance.
