onefish Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Just a really quick question, is there any way to use some level of encryption for username/password contained in an FMP URL? I suspect not but it could present a security risk sending the the data unencrypted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Duncan Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Hi onefish, Absolutely not. What problem are you trying to solve by doing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Gill Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 (edited) I mean you could use some sort of encrpytion/decryption in the url when storing parameters to at least obfuscate the data stored in the url. I have an AES_Encrypt/Decrypt function that I use to store & set a field for username that is sent via email. When a user clicks the link it opens a Web Direct database and performs a script that decrypts the value stored in the parameter. But that's just for username. I would never send a password via a url parameter. Edited February 18, 2016 by James Gill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
