keeping CC numbers out of database


Guest

It seems that osCommerce automatically makes a row for CC numbers in the database when the database is generated. How can I safely get rid of this so I dont have any cc numbers on the server? I use authorizenet for my credit card processing and dont need to keep that or even know that information. If I cant remove it then what is a good add-on to encrypt them?

Believe they are used by the default cc processing modle that comes with osc.

 

Personally I'd delete that module from /includes/modules/payment and delete the 2 fields in the orders table.

In the admin section under payment modules, uninstall the credit card module

If your authorize.net module saves cc info in the db, uninstall it immediately and replace it with a module which do not store the cc in the db.
