Abstract:
XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a
general-purpose specification for creating custom
markup languages. XML Encryption provides endto-
end security for applications that require secure
exchange of structured data. XML-based data
transfer systems are useful in nowadays. In recent
years, a technology emerged that made use of XML
metadata itself to encrypt XML elements directly
into a different XML document. This paper
explores the use of XML encryption with AES in
securing web data and user authentication check
with Cookie authentication that requires a certain
level of privacy using the example of an online
banking system.
