On upload the file metadata is entered into the database, and given a unique id. The file itself is renamed to the unique id and encrypted with AES256. The additional configuration setting is granting the AppPool identity read, write, modify and delete permissions to the fileuploads folder. -- Regards, Tucker

Is this a problem? Thanks. Rod

Is this by design and/or are there plans to extend access to Doublelocked secrets to the iPhone app? Thanks again. Rod
