Hi to all the members of this group. My name is Paul McDonald and I am a relatively new Delphi programmer. I apologize if this seems like a trivial question, and I would like to start off by first saying that I have been a member of this group for about 8 months, and I really enjoy reading and learning from all the members. Your assistance to others has taught me a lot about different approaches to the way I program, and how much I learn. I also enjoy the fact that this is a pretty active group with relative information.
I am currently developing a new software package that I am still working the kinks out of, however I have hit a pretty good hurdle and I would love to find out other peoples approaches to this problem. I am not looking for someone else to code the project for me, I am pretty sure I can do that myself, well I think so anyways. The question I have is to find a somewhat simple but very complex authentication system to really challenge hackers, and hijackers from accessing portions of a network to secure database entry. If you think you can assist or provide a solution that is software dependant only, I would be very interested in hearing ideas from you or any member of the group. Furthermore, the challenge is to find a solution that is really outside the box. not a traditional security approach this way it triples or quadruples the amount of effort required by intruders to try and figure a way to get into the system. Ideally I would like to hear from everyone in the group about even the strangest solutions to this problem. I am being very general with this information to allow as many different ideas to be presented, and possibly discussed further by a group of interested parties. If you are interested in giving any assistance or feedback, please contact me through the group, or privately if you wish at [EMAIL PROTECTED] I would like to see if we can start even a thread on this group regarding security issues we all face, and ways that we have or could resolve these issues through programming. I look forward to hearing from everyone and getting to know each other a bit better. Thanks for your help in advance, Paul McDonald Digital Development Toronto, Ontario, Canada [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
