Hey,
I'm new to cryptography and I haven't done much with it. I have Apache-SSL
working with a Thawte certificate. But I have a question? What's the best
way to store information securely on my server?
I have some PERL Crypt modules that I've played with, but do these support
public key encryption?
The scenario is this: I have a client that wants to accept credit cards
securely. I could just use file permissions to keep things secure (with a
CGI Wrapper), but this doesn't seem like the right way to go. I want to use
file permissions in conjunction with encryption.
The ideal situation would be one where I could give the client a password to
access the secured file on the server. The client would connect via SSL,
type this password, and view the encrypted file. Is this feasible? How
would I go about doing this?
Sorry for my naivite, but as I said, I'm very new to encryption.
Thanks,
Russell
