Security :: Sending A Secure Email?
Mar 11, 2010
I'm building a forgot password feature for my first secure backend.
I want to email a url containing an encrypted parameter to the user which will lead them to a password reset form that can only be accessed via the url with the encrypted parameter.
But what if the email gets intercepted?? then anyone who intercepts it will have the link to the reset page.
Is there a way I can send a secure email? I know nothing about email really. Is it even possible to send a secure email? Can I encrypt the email, will that help? But if it is encrypted then how does the recipient read it?

Having spent considerable amount of time in ASP.NET security community I would like to share this.
There are three ways of resetting and changing passwords explained at
Microsoft ASP.NET site[URL]
Step 1: Helping Users Recover Lost Passwords
Step 2: Changing Passwords
Step 3: Allowing Administrators to Change Users' Passwords
In step 1 and step 2 end user passwords are sent by an email.
In Step 3: functionality is explained where administror changing the password and sending through email msg. refer "I encourage those readers interested in this functionality to become more familiar with the code and try extending the functionality to include sending an email to the user whose password was changed. Query
Is Sending passwords by emial secure enough or best security password at all? I have implemented functionality where Admin sending passwords to end users by changing once in 3 months. End users expressed their views that sending passwords by email is not secure. When there is security threat in sending passwords by email, Microsoft security experts should not emailing passwords in above mentioned article, which is still up to date.

I have a PasswordRecovery control set up on an ascx control as shown below. In some cases users have gotten two emails with different passwords sent at the same time. They're insistent that they haven't hit the button twice. I am using the CSSFriendly adapters, so I can take that off and see if it corrects the problem. Otherwise I suppose I could put this on the aspx page rather than a control.
<asp:PasswordRecovery ID="PasswordRecovery1" runat="server"

I'm building a website for a client on which they want site visitors to be able to fill out a form with the relevant information along with their credit card details, and when they submit the form, the information will be sent to the client in an email. This is an experimental services that they're offering so they're not interested in real time credit card processing yet. If I just zip the collected data up into a password protected zip file, and send that in an email to the client, would it be secure? Or do I have to go further than that to secure the data?

I was curious how some of you are sending out an email to a new user, are you sending more then one email with username and link in one and then the password in another, are you sending everything in one email, are you sending an email to the new user at all?I'm curious because my web site is not a self registering web site, Only a supervisor can create a new user and then that user gets an email. I'm trying to figure out the best way to send the new user an email with their credentials to the site.the users are outside users (vendors) though their username is created by an internal employee

I have a custom mini login user control that I have embedded in the top of my website which shows on every page. These pages are non-secure HTTP://. I would like to avoid having to redirect the user to a HTTPS page to perform the login but I definitely don't want to send login credentials to the server in plain text.
I am trying find a method to send the user's login credentials encrypted via https from a non-secure (http) page.
I tried to set the postbackurl for the login button to itself but in https, but the user's input is not retained and the buttonLogin_click is not fired when I set the button postbackurl property. My ASP.net web application is VB.Net framework 4.0
I am assuming this can be done because I see lots of websites where login fields are on available on every page and they are running http and I can believe they are not encrypting the login credentials.

I have set a job in sql server 2008 to send reminder emails for product expiration. Now I want a report which will specify the list of the emails sent with the email status details like queued ,sent,delivered, failed.
I can fetch the emails that are sent by querying the like following
select * from sysmail_mailitems SM inner join sysmail_profile SP on SM.Profile_Id = SP.Profile_Id
and SP.Name ='ReminderProfile'
The problem is only getting a perfect status of email whether it is delived or failed. How I can get those status ?

have code on a web form -- when you hit the button "send emails", it executes this sub which reads an SQL database table and sends emails one by one -- however I get this error above -- anyway to check it and skip to the next email? Some emails in my table have name@test.co.il for example, so it seems this causes this error.
