I'm currently working on developing an application that will be dealing
with sensitive data. The web is perfectly suited for the application.
The problem that I have with the web though is how to secure the data
being transmitted between the server and the browzer.
I know about SSL, but the application is for use outside USA, so as I
understand it SSL will only be 40 bit encryption. This is not considered
suitable. Previously I have used Entrust from NorTel to secure network
communication. My question is either : 1) does anyone know if it is
possible to integrate Entrust with any of the available web browzers. 2)
what other encryption packages are available that would provide a better
service than SSL, and integrate with a Web browzer.
