By using IPFilter - Allow/Deny Access by IP Address You can protect WCF web service.. The explanation is as follows:

Dear Venky,

One option can be you authenticate clients using a username/password and protect the connection using ssl. This is good if the connection is over the internet.
Another is You can use Message-based security without SSL. Message based security secures your messages prior to sending them to the transport channel. So you can send secured messages over HTTP.

Happy Coding.
