Struts does not handle this directly. You'll have to do it yourself or
use an existing tool to protect these parameters.

When I do this type of thing, I symmetrically encrypt the data and then
pass the encrypted string as a GET parameter. In order to reduce the
threat of replay attacks, I encrypt the expiration date and time of the
data along with it and refuse to accept it on the other end if it has
expired.

There's a project out there called HDIV that is supposed to protect data
like this. I don't know a thing about it except that someone posts
updates to the project on this list occasionally. (http://www.hdiv.org)

Hope that helps,
