there are lots of possibilities depending on binding you are using, an approach could be to use Message Security with X509 certification in WSHtttpBinding you can read about it's example here

  • Disable Mex (Api information)
  • Use HTTPS to prevent man in middle attacks

these are general ideas based on your environment and constraints it can be different.
