Support for Encryption

CA Gen stores the passwords of an ASP.NET Web Client application in the sessionState, and connectionStrings sections of the configuration files.

When building a CA Gen ASP.NET Web Client application, you have the option to encrypt the sessionState, and connectionStrings sections of the configuration files.

With the DataSources node on MSI .NET Assemble Details dialog in the Build Tool, you can enable the encryption of the following sections of the configuration files:

• The connectionStrings section in web.config for the Gen ASP.NET Web Client application.
• The connectionStrings section in Application.config for Component Services.
