I think this is the most appropriate forum for my question.

My app is nearly finished and uses a WCF Service to fetch info from a database. The programme doesn't send any peronal info, usernames, peoples account etc, it only asks the service for info.

Should I bother with a SSL certifcate or just encrypt the data I'm sending (which the SSL does anyway)? It would be a lot less time consuming.

What are your thoughts about this? I know it sounds a little nasty, but you read about banking websites being cracked all the time and they use certifcates. If people want the info bad enough, they'll get it anyway. Plus, my data being sent is not worth anything to anyone anyway.

Thanks.
