Eh, eh, eh? What is there for me to say? I just say it all. Okay, let's
me reparaphrase this.
I received this unusual requirement from the credit bureau, Experian. It
said that if the user want to save the inquiry from the website, by the mean
of saving it to the hard disk on the personal computer. That file must be
128-bit encrypted.
It shouldn't be too difficult to encrypt it before pass it to the web
browser. But the keys or encryption once the user closed the browser? PHP
is a server side language. It doesn't support this. So, anyone have such a
ideas or knowledge?? Experian got to be kidding!!!
