security and midlets

[ian_marron]

If I want a midlet to securely transact with a server, what are my options. I'm using a 7210 but something like the Bouncy Castle crypto
makes the midlet too big to fit on it.
What else can I do ?

Hi


For autenthication you can use onetimepasswords
or hash the password using timestamp, randon number and login name.

Well is you are using bouncy castle crypto API, you can make for example RC4 ecrypted connection quite easily and that does not take so much memory/space if you clean the rest of the staff from API away.
