Need to use the HTTPS protocol when doing User Mapping

[Former Member]

HTTPS is a secure protocol and should be required when supplying password information.

Thanks for pointing this out. We are working on a solution for this and let you know as soon as we have it. Best, Mark.

We are now using SSL (HTTPS) in SDN.

Just a point.

Would it not better to only encrypt the password entry pages and not the whole site. You find that if you encrypt the whole site then the site performance normally goes downhill.

Take for example amazon, the only pages that are secure are the credit card entry pages. They specify only these pages as SSL encrypted, and these pageas are re-directed to the secure port.

I agree with you.

I agree. Even from Walldorf access to SDN is slow because of https.

Yes, I think that is something missing in the SAP Enterprise Portal. We could log on via HTTPS and use an HTTP connection afterwards.
