Dear Friends,

I have to implement security on my website for the URL's, as currently they show full name of the Pages in which they land (once clicked on the menu) and also while going in the edit mode they show the ID of the particular record being edit.

Here i am thinking of two techniques of proceeding the security i.e.,

1). URL Rewriting OR
2). Encrypting the URL (which i think is not a good option)

Kindly suggest the correct option or some other solution for the same.

Thanks

It would be interesting to know why the user seeing the url of a page is a security risk. And, why can't selection on a menu pass an index, or whatever, to the server, and the server then send down a page with something like "www.yoursite.com/bunchofhexjunk" ?
