I need to find some Documentation concerning the security of localhost. I am using some simply ASP files to edit a few Access 2000 databases. To edit them, I download the access file and run the ASP file using localhost. My IT department is concern that the ASP files are being loaded to our main web-server and viewed by anyone knowing the address.
