Chapter 16. Implementing Security
Security is always the last thing developers seem to look at, when in fact security should be thought about even before the first InfoPath solution is designed. Developers often get excited about the possibilities of forms, or applications, and fail to pay attention to the integrity of the system as a whole.
While security is not as exciting as developing the actual form, it is more important than just about every aspect of the forms you create, because poor security could allow hackers to get into your system and network. In this chapter you will:
See an overview of security and how it is handled in InfoPath.
Create fully trusted forms automatically and using a special utility called RegForm.
Learn how .NET defines security.
Find out what digital signatures are and how to best use them in InfoPath forms.
