The finite simple zero-symmetric composition rings \((K,+,\cdot,\circ)\) with an identity with respect to composition and \(K.K\neq\{0\}\) are characterized in the paper. Main results are the following: 1) A zero-symmetric composition ring \((K,+,\cdot,\circ)\) with a left identity with respect to composition and such that \(K.K\neq\{0\}\) is finite and simple if and only if \(K\) satisfies either (a) or (b), where (a) und (b) are given by: (a) \((K,+,\cdot,\circ)\) is not a ring and there exist a finite ring \(R\) and a regular group \(S^*\) of ring automorphisms on \(R\) such that \(K\) is isomorphic to \(M_S(R)\), where \(S=S^*\cup\{0\}\). b) \((K,+,\cdot,\circ)\) is isomorphic to \((Z_2,+,*,*)\), where \(*\) is the field-multiplication on \(Z_2\). 2) Let \(R\) be a ring with nonzero multiplication and let \(F\) be a sub-composition ring of \(M_0(R)\) that is 2-primitive on the ring \(R\) with \(\text{id}_R\in F\). (\(F\) operates on \(R\) in the obvious way.) Let \(S\) be the set of all \(F\)-ring endomorphisms on \(R\). Then we have: 1. \(S=S^*\cup\{0\}\), where \(S^*\) is a regular group of \(F\)-ring automorphisms. 2. \(F\) is dense in \(M_S(R)\). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0874.00036].
