Re: [PHP] Credit Card encryption

2010-06-01 Thread Peter Lind
Just wondering: seems there's a bit of a misunderstanding going on
here. Are you talking about storing credit card information in a way
such that customers can do online transactions without entering that
information? Or are you talking about storing this information so your
own company can fill in the details on a monthly basis?
 If 1) then the above points apply and you should not store the data,
period. If 2) then I would assume the situation is somewhat different
- though, not knowing the laws from the US I wouldn't really know.

Peter

No to #1, yes to #2.

As for #1, companies like Godaddy do store this information, so I know
it can be safely done.

But no, we do #2. If we were doing #1, I would turn this over to some
gateway and not save the info.

I'm not sure any of this has to do with laws. It has more to do with the
PSS and the rules of individual credit card companies (Visa, American
Express, etc.).

When you say client in this context, what do you mean? The ultimate

The client here would have been my client -- the person who pays me

who has the agreement with the credit card processor and in this case 
it was a PayPal Merchant service.


In the documentation and code PayPal provides there are levels of 
accessibility/failure you can assign to authorization. You can set it 
to FAIL if the zip code or CCV are not correct -- however -- it 
defaults to requiring only the name, expiry date, and credit card

While working on this, I found that the cost for the less secure

Peter:

Yes to the first.

I am sure there are all sorts of situations, but in most of the 
problematic ones I've encountered the clients want to have customers 
logon and have all their credit card information automatically filled 
into their forms for purchase. This requires that somewhere on the 
site all customer's data are kept in a manner that can be accessed 
and used -- and therein lies the problem.


Clients (mine) often think that a web site should be as safe as their 
brick and mortar operations and as such offer similar services -- 
namely having a past customer's data waiting and available for 
immediate purchase without having to brother the customer for it 
again -- like having a card file.


Unfortunately, the security aspects of the web require different 
thinking -- the web is not brick and mortar, which provides both 
concern and opportunity.

tedd

It's got to do with PHP because all the code which handles all this
customer data, etc., is PHP. (It's all internal to my network.)

You could use mcrypt_*() functions to encrypt the credit card numbers,
no problem. Some of the methods of encryption possible with mcrypt are
very strong.

The original question was if there was an alternative to forcing the
user who wants to access the CC number to supply a separate password in
order to access the information. The apparent answer (given the original
constraints) is no, there is no alternative.

Hi gang:

Here's my first NetBeans question:

How do you turn off the automatic insertion of quotes when you're editing?

For example, when I type div id=content, I end up with div 
id=content. The editor see's me type a quote and then 
automatically inserts another quote.


I've reviewed all the preferences and don't see a place where I can 
turn that off.

Use preg_match() to find an expression within a string. You can use
something like this to grab check if a string contains only letters or
numbers:

if(preg_match('/^[a-zA-Z0-9]+$/'), $string)
{

}

 Rather than install the separate components have you looked at a pre-built
 stack? A lot of people swear by the WAMP install on Windows. For my own
 experience on Windows, I've found EasyPHP to be an absolute doddle to use,
 and can have you up and running with all the modules you need within
 minutes.

 the result i need: childclass
 the result i get: some\where\childclass

I would use basename()

 also is it possible to get the name() into the static variable if only

 The install should allow you to choose different ports, but as
 you already have Apache and MySQL installed, have you looked
 to download the PHP Windows installation file from php.net and
 run that? It should let you attach it to an existing Apache
 install, although I'm not familiar with installing PHP this

Thanks, Ash.

I was able to set things up with EasyPHP 3.0. I had to uninstall my MySQL

to look at a separate instance of MYSQL while the EasyPHP's instance runs
too.

Anyone has encountered this before?

Rather than install the separate components have you looked at a 
pre-built
stack? A lot of people swear by the WAMP install on Windows. For my own
experience on Windows, I've found EasyPHP to be an absolute doddle to 
use,
and can have you up and running with all the modules you need within
minutes.
   
  Thanks,

   The editor you use won't matter. EasyPHP installs Apache, MySQL and PHP in
   one install, and gets it all working together easily on Windows.

   The install should allow you to choose different ports, but as you already
   have Apache and MySQL installed, have you looked to download the PHP 
   Windows
   installation file from php.net and run that? It should let you attach it
   to an existing Apache install, although I'm not familiar with installing 
   PHP
   this way on a Windows machine.

I realize that you have used EasyPHP. For others wanting to do this, 
Bitnami(http://bitnami.org/) has a WAMP stack too. What's nice is if you want 
to add Postgre, there's a module that installs into the stack too. There are 
other modules/apps that also integrate into your WAMP stack, so you don't have 
to have separate apache servers running all those different apps.

[PHP] session data

2010-06-01 Thread Colin Finnis
I'm having a problem with session data. I have a login setup which holds the 
user ID and password in the session data once the user has initially logged 
in. When the user goes to a new page or accesses a pop up window the users 
session data is validated against a list of IDs and passwords held on the 
system rather than forcing them to log in each time. As far as I can work 
out this is fairly standard stuff for this sort of process. It works fine in 
Firefox but is very inconsistent when used in IE 7. On occasions when a new 
page is accessed the users is forced to login again. The reason for this 
appears to be that the variables in which the ID and password are stored 
don't exist. I have a whole load of trace code which gives me various 
information and session ID is apparently being picked up correctly. The 
weird thing is that if you reload the page it will then work correctly. I 
have tried adding session_write_close as I thought the data was not being 
written out correctly during the initial login. This code has been developed 
in eclipse using an Apache web serve and works just fine in this 
environment. I am trying to deploy it to an IIS serve to which I only have 
limited access and cant debug it in this environment.

Since I have another Java app running and points to the same port 3306, when

How about configuring EasyPHP at a different port? In that ways, EasyPHP's

locate my.cnf file. Its in your mysql directory. And your mysql directory is
somewhere in wamp install directory.
Open the file with notepad/wordpad and change the port number.
Its written just like this,
port= 3306

Change is to
port= 3307 or whatever port you like.

Then restart mysql.

But remember, all you php app need to connect mysql through that 3307 port
which is not standard.
So mysql_connect() functions  params should be tweaked.

Re: [PHP] Credit Card encryption

2010-06-01 Thread Brandon Rampersad
I store CC # in plain text on my custom ecommerse website script so i can
compare it with others. That way it's easier to convert to different hashes
when i decide to integrate an encryption system. So far i havent had any
problems.

  You are correct. I meant no offense. In turn, when I read your post, it
  appeared that you were making a blanket statement applicable under all
  conditions, to which I objected. However, reading back over it, you did
  insert qualifiers.
