WebApp Sec: Re: Encrypted URL

Re: Encrypted URL

If you want to include a directory in the url, write an
isapi filter to look at the path which you will then
translate to another url.
see
http://www.codeproject.com/isapi/isapiredirector.asp?target=isapi

for url encryption, thats pretty easy. Simply form your
url, encrypt it, URL encode it, and use it. Lots of times
links are formed with this information so your page can
track without sessions user information, but in a secure
way. It can definitely help protect against attacks via the
querystring, but assuming its a complex scheme.
