hi! i am building a web application. for client authentication, i am using cookies which include the HMAC of the data. the server also has a public/private key pair for signing and verifying information. my question is how should these be stored on the server? encryption is the best solution, but if i encrypt them with another key, the question is where does this key get stored? thanks cheers ajay ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Computer Forensics Training at the InfoSec Institute.
