Securely sending callbacks to remote servers

[imop44]

When sending a callback to a remote server, is there anything preventing the request and callback password from being read by a malicious party?

Thanks

The parameters are sent via POST so if your callback code is running on an SSL-enabled server and you specify an HTTPS link then the password is encrypted along with everything else. Even if not, it would require a man-in-the-middle attack. If that were possible then you are already compromised. The password option just keeps random hackers and bots from purposely (or accidentally) executing your callback code.

Okay great, thanks for the quick response.
