Add a certificate to the key store:

Set a URL ACL for the current user to listen on a specific port

netsh http add urlacl url=http://+:44444/  user=DOMAIN\username

netsh http add urlacl url=https://localhost:44300/           user=DOMAIN\username
netsh http add urlacl url=https://hostname:44300/            user=DOMAIN\username
netsh http add urlacl url=https://hostname.domain.ext:44300/ user=DOMAIN\username

Generate a certificate and store it in the local computer's certificate store.

Then, use netsh to assign the certificate to a port and application.

netsh http delete sslcert ipport=<hostname>:<port>
netsh http add sslcert ipport=<hostname>:<port> certhash=<certificate-thumbprint> appid=<appid>

For example:

netsh http delete sslcert ipport=0.0.0.0:44301

A good summary of all the extensibility points: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/carlosfigueira/2011/03/14/wcf-extensibility/

Doing stuff before/after calls

Use IOperationInvoker if you need to do "runtime-y" things, such as replacing the current SynchronizationContext (perhaps with one that restores OperationContext after an await...).

But! You can only apply an IOperationInvoker from an IOperationBehavior, not from a IServiceBehavior. If you try to assign an operation invoker from a service behavior, WCF will eventually just overwrite it. If you want to apply an IOperationInvoker to every operation in a contract, you can write an IServiceBehavior which applies the IOperationBehavior to every operation.

You can have an attribute which can apply to a whole service, or to a single operation:
