python - How to safely store sensitive data? -
i'm writing program sending data server using private apikey. don't want keep key in plaintext, need contact server.
what kind of reversible encryption work ?
it seems if give program , needs use api key, there no way avoid giving out api key. best can hope obscure enough think easier api key elsewhere. supposing api key difficult elsewhere persists in attempting decode program, will it.
consider end user able snoop on communications server, going man in middle on ssl connection, sending key plain-text anyways.
apply nuisance crypto, rot13, , forget it.
