Wasn't there another thread a little while ago where someone suggested 
using an iFrame to obfuscate the URL?  Maybe that could work for you?

Re: mid tier lock down URL






I have row level access in place and it works from the client except the
users can still see the results list.  But when the user goes directly
to a form by typing in the name directly in the URL for some reason they
can go to any record. My concern is the mid-tier because that is the
only method our customer uses to access Remedy.

Seems to me you are trying to address the symptoms and not the source of
the problem.  If this is really an issue, fix your apps within Remedy.
Form, row, and field level access give you all you need to address any
data leakage.

Even if you somehow bandaid the mid-tier, anyone can use the api, a
macro in the user tool, and probably a number of other methods to get at
the data (all exposed via the api).

If the only attack vector you are trying to address is the web, then I
guess this approach would actually solve something, but how reliable and
secure will it be in the end?  How much time do you want to spend
maintaining it?
