Is it a requirement to have encrypted data in the database itself? Where I
work, there are also many guidelines that we have to follow. The US's OCC
(http://www.occ.gov/) has lots of rules like this that they're always
auditing our Web site security. While we must encrypt all data that is sent
from the browser to the server when it is anything remotely customer
related, (i.e. via httpS), we are not required to store the data encrypted
in the database itself.
As far as coding things the same in VB and ASP, well, that depends on what
you're doing in VB. I assume that you'll be using VB Script as your ASP
language, yes? So, the code should be pretty similar. Browse around some
of the FAQs at www.aspfaq.com for some code samples. One specific one that
you may want to read prior to duplicating VB coding style in an ASP page is
this one. http://www.aspfaq.com/show.asp?id=2191
