Edit Question
Title
Body
Consider a scenario, where user authentication (username and password) is entered by the user in the page's form element, which is then submitted. The POST data is sent via HTTPS to a new page (where the php code will check for the credentials). Now if a hacker sits in the network, and say has access to all the traffic, is the Application layer security (HTTPS) enough in this case ? I mean, would there be adequate URL encryption or is there a need to have Transport Layer security ?
