Hi all,
We all know and have read many articles saying that AutoComplete should be disabled since a malicious user can gain sensitive data from this 'feature'. However all the documentation on AutoComplete states that the information is encrypted. Does anyone know what encryption scheme MS uses for AutoComplete? I would assume they would use at least 128-bit but then again what do I know...
