SSL is essential. Decompiling a swf isn't going to assist in decrypting SSL. You're thinking that SSL isn't good enough? AMF by itself just compresses the data - it doesn't implement any sort of encryption, AFAIK.

So how are we supposed to move this kind of data in and out of a Flex application without the worry? Does SSL even help? The concern is not the forging of data, but rather the interception and decryption of it. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "andrewwestberg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Simply having SSL (https) enabled on your php webserver will help. > Another methodology for accessing DB data is using AMFPHP (although I > haven't used it myself). > > -Andrew > ------------------------------------ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.comYahoo!
