I have a .net web application that post data to server from javascript via jquery in association with wcf ui services. This enables a non post back modal.
Is it possible to encrypt the data being sent to the server so that using sniffing applications such as fiddler and firebug, the POST of the data cannot be viewed. I want to achieve this for security. The data will need to be read on the server side.
Any tips on this?
Make the request to an ssl endpoint. The action would be https://something/action.
