Hi All,
Quick question. In a php script I am connecting to my Informix db with the standard ifx_connect("foo@bar","user","passwd") and our IT guy says this is unacceptable because somebody might get this info since it's in a plain file. He wants me to encrypt this info somehow or make it more secure. Can anybody help with ideas or how to present this to him?
Thanks,
Stephanie
