I want to use PKI public and private encryption for authentication to allow for a more streamlined and secure application access control system. Any help in the generation of certificate and authentication will be useful. One more question, can i use System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates class for the same?
View 1 RepliesI am developing and application in vb.net winxp+ (windows xp upwards). The application has to receive backup data from clients software located at different pc over the Internet. but am concerned about security of this application on the Internet. what would be the best way to implement security in vb.net 2008 to make sure that the data is not sniffed or interfere with?
am thinking of encrypting the data before sending, saving it that way until it need to be viewed before decrypting. what type of encryption would you suggest? Is there any other way you would suggest this data be sent?

View 2 RepliesThrough COM, one can potentially gain absolute control over a target system. For example: using javascript's ActiveXObject object in IE, one can create certain objects which were designed to have direct access or interaction with system properties and files.One would think common sense dictates users disable ActiveX features in IE immediately after installing the browser to ensure their system is protected while surfing the net, or at least paying close attention to which websites they permit. But, I doubt many average PC users know how or why to do this, or just get tired of mirco-managing it over time. I think any PC user or admin my COM class caters to would greatly appreciate not having to deal with that. Thankfully it looks like IE versions come packaged with ActiveX disabled by default nowadays.
I've built a very versatile COM class library in VB. I didn't intend for it to be callable from any website, but that feature is just part of the COM platform. I'd like to prevent the library from being called from IE unless the website is on a white-listed domain to proactively protect the user (and ultimately their entire intranet) from harm from malicious websites. What would be the best method in VB.Net to tell which application called my DLL, to be able to tell if it was called from any command or process originating from IE? And, what domain called my dll? System.Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()(0) gets me the calling application path. With this info, I can compare it to a black/white-list of applications.
I have built a MVC website on IIS6. I used the built-in ASP.NET Security without Membership, just the way it was implemented in the template solution. It is easy to secure a contoller or action, but now I need to expose the user management to an admin logged into the site. I understand that the builtin ASP controls for doing this are not "best practice" and are a dog to get working. So what is the best practice for offering user management through a ASP.NET MVC application?
I considered using the Entity Framework and wireing it up to the myriad of stored procs. but that seems awkward. I see options for AccountMembershipService and FormsAuthenticationService. That is what the existing project account controller uses. But, I am not fimilliar with either.I can't help but think that this should have already been there from the project template. This is a fundamental part of any website and you were given 15%, why not the rest?
i created the following ActionFilterAttribute to check if a user is granted access to a page. I also created two custom Exceptions to handle different scenarios: NotLoggedInException and InsufficientPrivilegeException.
[Code]...
Where do I catch the exceptions to for instance redirect users if not authorized?Should I perhaps use the SiteMap authorization somewhere else instead of using the ActionFilterAttribute and throwing Exceptions..?
note: as you can see I'm using a custom class for BLL.Page. This is a ORM page which has Role based security stored in the database. SiteMap is also populated based on this data

View 3 RepliesCounting days independent of system calander ?
View 1 RepliesI want to add a feature to my trial version of the application. After first activation, I want to make it limited to 90 days. But I am concerned about user's changing the date of system hence deceiving my application. Is there any possibility to make it fool proof in a way that even if user takes the calender back, application expires after 90 days of first activation? First activation date has been saved in the database.
View 2 RepliesOut of 70 users of my application 2 are getting the following message when they to run the application... That assembly does not allow partially trusted callers. The reason for the error is that by default .net applications run from a network location have limited permissions. You need to use caspol.exe to add the network folder where your application is being run from to the Trusted Zone. If you do a search on these forums you will find plenty examples of how to do this. It is fairly simple. It will have to be done on every machine that will be running the application and a simple cmd file can be made to do this. The only difference is that I've asked our service desk to install the application to the local C drive which I believe they did.

I am writing a small visual basic application to install clean up tools quickly on any machines that we need to work on here at my workplace. I am using 4-5 cleanup programs that I have packaged into MSI's and have batch scripts that I am calling in my visual basic application to run them as silent installs. However, because I am doing the silent installs, windows always pops up with the "open file - security warning" and I have to click run for each individual program. I am wondering how to get around this from my end within the application. I know it can be disabled in windows but I am not wanting to have to go through a process on every machine that I run this program on. I would like to find a fix on the back end in my script.
View 2 RepliesI have a Visual Basic.Net Windows Forms application to which I am considering adding the WebBrowser control. I'm assuming that the PC's on which this application will ultimately be deployed/installed will have the latest Windows (XP, Vista, or 7) updates, a firewall, and an Internet security suite installed/running.
With this deployment environment in mind, does the WebBrowser control make my application or the deployment PC vulnerable to any significant security risks? Are there any programming issues that should be addressed to eliminate potential security risks when using the WebBrowser control?
I am building this tool for my 2 home computers. Its a client/server program, which is pretty easy to program. However, as with almost all program, you encounter an error now and then. However with this error I am completely clueless to what the problem is. Basically, when I connect from my client to the server, it connects and all. I can send command lines which the server then adds to the log. I have also made a command called /screenshot which basically just takes a screenshot and send it over the connection (so I wont have to run to my 2 computers constantly xD). Anyways, the thing is, that is working fine but This other code I'm making to make it list all the Drives and the first sub-folders inside the drives, disconnects me >_> I can send the screenshot line, that works fine, but when I send the 'listfolders' command, it just disconnects me. When I go back to my other computer it just says disconnected. And it doesn't even execute the given strings. I tested it to make it send a msg box when DCing, that worked fine, but listing those drives and stuff inside a TXT or List box didn't seem to work :<Also. this code works when I make it execute it on startup, but it wont execute it when its sent by my client. So my only guess is that Microsoft has made some sort of security precaution that made you unable to make programs that could have anything to do with the folders, over a TCP connection or something :s Thats my only guess, but perhaps you see whats wrong?

Hi All,Out of the blue VS 2008 has started showing a security warning dialog every time I create a new project or open an existing one as follows:"The {application name} project file has been customized and could present a security risk by executing custom build steps when opened in Microsoft Visual Studio. If this project came from an untrustworthy source, it could cause damage to your computer or compromise your private information."Two options given are:1) Load Project for Browsing2) Load Project NormallyA 'More Details' button opens a message box with:"An item referring to the file "" was found in the project file "C:UsersAdministratorAppDataLocalTemporary ProjectsWindowsApplication1WindowsApplication1.vbproj". Since this file is located in a system directory, root directory or network share it could be harmful to write to this file."1) I havent changed any settings since before getting this error and have kept all directories the same2) file locations are in "C:UsersAdministratorDocumentsVisual Studio 2008" - with full permissions3) Vista UAC is turned off4) I am using the Administrator login5) I tried Tools>Options>Projects and Solutions>General - and un-checked "Warn user when the project location is not trusted" -

View 3 RepliesI have created a security program that monitors the keystokeswebsitesprocesses... I want to FIRST ask if this is a legal question; for, my purpose in this program is security reasons (eg. following up on employees to make sure that they are doing what they are paid to do. They all know this is running, and have been warned not to go to sites and enter information they do not want reviewed).
Second, I want this program to be hidden so that techy persons cannot go into task manager and end the process, then go on to some porn site! How could I make this app hidden, or at the very least make it 'un-end-able' from the task manager?
I've got this program I'm working on in VisStudio2008. Basically, it accepts a password and executes an Access 2003 database using the Access 2003 runtime. I've got the thing looking up a password and all is good, but there's one problem those annoying Access 2003 and higher warnings about unsafe macros. Does anyone know a way to make sure those don't show up when the program starts?My client has a database that someone else wrote for her. She's not at a point where she could have it rewritten (believe me, I've tried to talk her into that). So I have to stay in Access but it's not very professional to have those warnings come up.
