Is there an Encryption on a GET method

Discussions of secure PHP coding. Security in software is important, so don't be afraid to ask. And when answering: be anal. Nitpick. No security vulnerability is too small.

Is there an Encryption on a GET method

Post by jagannathg »

Hello Everyone,

Is there an Encryption on a GET method? So that we can securely pass value to the next page in the URL.

Any Help on this would be great.

Regards,
Jagannath

Not sure what you're doing, but you would need to encrypt it yourself: http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ref.mcrypt.php
mysql_function(): WARNING: This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQLextension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information.

If you're asking if GET data is encrypted under SSL, then yes. See here for more info:
