Can you elaborate on securing the IDs


Well, if you are sending secured information through URL, few things should be taken care.

  1. Encrypt the values and send the encrypted text. The encrypted text may have special characters and you probably have to encode it before using in URL.
  2. A second level of check should be performed after you receive the id. For example, you have a page that allows editing personal information of current user with a url like (edit.aspx?id=20) where 20 is the current user's id. Since the id is clearly visible, a user can change it to 30 and edit that users personal information. So after receiving the id, you need to check whether the current user logged in has the same id specified in the URL. It is good to do this second level of checking even the values are encrypted.
After all, if you can, avoid passing secured information through URL. Smile | :)

Best wishes,
Navaneeth
