Securing/Encrypting QueryStrings

Hi all,

I read an article on ASP.Net website the other day which sent me off to this
address :

http://www.dotnetjunkies.com/HowTo/9...75836DC72.dcik

It gives a good example of how to encrypt a QueryString so that it cannot be
tampered (successfully) with etc, the applications that our organisation has
written use querystrings quite a lot in places, and I would like to adopt
this method of securing them - however - the example is written in C not VB
(which we are using here) - so I was wondering if :

a) anyone has done this in VB and could give me some help
b) anyone has a working example in VB that I could 'pinch'
I've had a look on google, and also through the help in Visual Studio but
have not been able to find SecureQueryStri ng etc..

Any help you can offer is appreciated,

Regards

Rob

1) Create secure workgroup system database, remove user ADMIN from the ADMINs group 2) Encrypt the source MDB front end database 3) Create 'n distribute MDE from the encrypted MDB Is that all? Or, am I forgetting some step(s)? If I can ask, what exactly does ENCRYPTing do to an unencrypted MDB file?

Hi, As part of a website (ASP.NET) we're creating, we need the ability to store documents with pretty much 'mission critical' security. ie, if the server is completely compromised (eg a trojan/virus is installed or someone physically steals the server) they will still not be able to gain access to the content of the files. I can securely transfer the files to and from the server, but I am unsure of how best to store them securely.

My company is concerned about security, especially if the laptop is compromised, so I should either encrypt all files on my computer using the Encrypting File System (EFS) or I should get the code off my computer. I tried to encrypt the wwwroot directory but I get a popup when running a project that says "Error while trying to run project: Unable to...

We've been working with the ASP.NET 2.0 sitemap functionality, and one problem we're currently having is a need to be able to generate a web.sitemap file that includes URLs containing querystring data. Unfortunately, the presence of querystrings within the URLs in the nodes of a sitemap file seems to break the whole sitemap navigation functionality. I don't have the specific examples or error message in front of me (although I can get...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
