Adding some points ...

Rampart can be used with Transport level security ( where the messages
are actually protected by the transport ) and Rampart validates
whether the message arrived through a secure a transport. For example
take Username token over HTTPS scenario. Here the message protection
is transport level security and Rampart provides the authentication.
Rampart also validates incoming transport to check whether it is
"https".

When Rampart signs and encrypts messages or parts of the messages as
in your scenario, it is message level security. You will find this [1]
comparison useful.
