    Hi,

    Just to give a background, I was doing procesing of critical data over non-secured enviorment. The "http" should have been "https".

    Does anyone know of some resources which can stop me from being in this deep mess again.

    Many TIA.

    The mess was: processing of critical data over non secured environment is considered against the US law, so i lost a client.

    As an alternative, could you encrypt the data?

    I may be wrong, but you'll need an SSL certificate to make that https thing to
    eventually encrypt your data.
