Questions in regards to Client Server security

As far as i have been able to find out there really isn't any easy way to provide data security between the Server and the Client, in regards to encoding and decoding sensitive data, perhaps i have missed something.

one way that i was thinking about is having the sAjaxSource call a javascript function that can send the required data for sorting etc. and be able to decode hashed data when it comes back.

i am having a problem figured out how to access the data that needs to be passed through ajax to retain the data table functionality.

any help is appreciated.

    Why wouldn't you just use SSL? Using https:// as your protocol is likely to be the most secure way of transmitting data I would suggest. Otherwise you'll need to do all sorts of clever things, defining your own encryption protocol - for example what is the point of encrypting the data, if you are just going to sent the decryption software (Javascript) in the clear!? :-)

    The cshtml pages "should" be compiled with Razor Generator so i believe it wont be out on the open.

    I'm afraid I don't know what either "Razor Generator" or a "cshtml" page is. Either way, if you want end to end security, SSL is the way to do it on the web.
