Question about encoding/decoding

[ds1-e]

Hi. I have a question encoding/decoding files.

I keep decoding keys in table, after decoding all files table is cleared. (nil)

I'm just wondering if client can get somehow a decoding key. If yes, then is there any way to avoid that?

You are talking about having encoded files on the client his hard drive?

Probably there is no way of avoiding that. It might be possible to request the keys from the server, but that also means that you will have to encode and decode the keys while this is being transferred over the network.

 

Even so the risk is more in the client editing the files, so you still have to compare hash strings before loading it.

When 1 of the edited files have been loaded, all other files are being at risk. Even the eventhandlers on serverside and all the elementdata.

I compare hash, if atleast one file doesn't have correct, i am breaking loop.

This will definitely hurt server? I guess so.
