We use the it2be cryptor plugin now, but we see that it doesn’t provide AES encryption. Has anyone introduced this encryption method into their servoy solution?
I haven’t heard of someone using AES in Servoy, but if you’re not afraid to code some java, it shouldn’t be too hard to create a plugin.
Obviously we can do it for you as well.
When you create a ticket in our support ticket we can look into this.
But, as Joas says, nobody else requested this before…
If you google aes javascript you also find some code.
We do retail solutions that store credit card numbers. Per the wiki on DES:
DES is now considered to be insecure for many applications. This is chiefly due to the 56-bit key size being too small; in January, 1999, distributed.net and the Electronic Frontier Foundation collaborated to publicly break a DES key in 22 hours and 15 minutes (see chronology). There are also some analytical results which demonstrate theoretical weaknesses in the cipher, although they are unfeasible to mount in practice. The algorithm is believed to be practically secure in the form of Triple DES, although there are theoretical attacks. In recent years, the cipher has been superseded by the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).
We’ll put a ticket in to it2be.
Thanks everyone.
i think not storing the credit card numbers is the best encryption
I’m agree with jcompagner, but if you really need to store passwords, the best way to do it is inside a hash checksum string (MD5, SHA-1, SHA-2 …).
There’is no way to extract information from a hashed string.
Un saludo. Roberto.
jcompagner… we would agree… we are researching our way to get around this but sometimes for business sake, our customers need to store the cc #'s.
We should have picked a different line of business.
