    Security issue with Form Library?

     Hi All,

     In infopath form library I have some fields hidden for certain users but the users can still download the form as xml file and see the data.

     But the data is too critical to comprise. Can you please tell me how to deal with such situations in infopath 2010 form library?

    Thanks,

    Rahul Babar

    Yes, this is a security risk. Even if you use views or conditional formatting in the form, the xml is still out there for download.

    We've used the Encrypt command in qRules to encrypt the data. Whether you use qRules or not, I think the solution is encryption, such that the xml data is not readable if downloaded.

     Thanks for the reply. Is there any other solution except qRules to protect the data?

    Thanks,
