[flexcoders] A security question...

[Laurence]

So, let's say I have a <mx:RemoteObject> in my program...  I want it to 
communicate with the server via SSL, or some other method whereby the 
credit-card numbers it sends to-and-from the server are encrypted.

Here's how it's structured currently:
<mx:RemoteObject id="roPaymentInfo" destination="ColdFusion"
   showBusyCursor="true" source="{'cfcs.dao.PaymentsDAO'}">
   <mx:method name="getPayments" result="roGetPaymentsResultHandler(event)" 
fault="roFaultHandler(event)"/>
   <mx:method name="addPayment" result="roAddPaymentResultHandler(event)" 
fault="roFaultHandler(event)"/>
</mx:RemoteObject>
        
Do I have to make my entire program secure via an https:// in the URL, or is 
there a way to encrypt just that one <mx:RemoteObject>?  If there is a way to 
secure just the one object, how is that done?

Thanks,
