Unsolved About client to remote database connection

[U7Development]

Hello!

I was developing my program with direct client to MySql connection relationship, but a friend tolds me that is unsecured... he says that i need to use REST because is not hard to see server autentication using a dessembler program..

I'm pretty new to this thing, is that true?.. ..
I was looking there is a plugin Qt REST Beta never used of course...

Any suggestion?.. or can i safely continue using the original relationship?

Thanks

This is only true if you store the authentication data in your app.

ok!.. so where should i store it, in server, cloud.. or somewhere else?..
Thanks..

@U7Development Do you have to store it? You could ask the user for the authentication data. Or do you want to avoid this?

@jsulm i would like the user select a preset (from a QComboBox) and then he types his password to login...

So, no need to store the password anywhere
