I've got an interesting problem - I'm building an app that accessess mysql over the web, and security is obviously a big issue. As far as the data is concerned I'm limiting each user with their own set of views, but I need to encrypt the connection. here's the issue - the app is intended to be a single executable with nothing installed , just a download and run. I may be able to get away with storing certificates on the client machine, but thats it. I won't be able to install any dll's. Does anyone have any good suggestions on how to approach this. I'm scratching my head pretty hard here!
