melting_dog Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 So sorry if this doesnt belong in this section but i was wondering if anyone knew of a way to encrypt sensitive information (i.e credit card details) passed from a form to a database/email? I am building a shopping cart and apart from protecting against SQL injection was wondering if there are any other ways to protect information.

Pikachu2000 Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 You shouldn't have to deal with the credit card numbers at all. That should be done by the CC processing company's script, as a plugin to your site. You don't really even want to try to store information like that, unless you have the millions of dollars to pay the claims when your database server gets hacked.

melting_dog Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 Yeah kinda glad to hear that actually. Just sussing out options. I suppose the best option would be to integrate pay pal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
