Hello Phillip,
perhaps my question was not exact.
Which protocol/service prefered by admins to tranfered data by my
program between client and server?

You need to explain what you consider "insecure" is an how you would determine
that it is insecure. Being secure is relative and defined by what you are
trying to be secure "from".
The fact that Blaster used RPC doesn't have any bearing at all as to if traffic
content is "secure" running over RPC. Blaster did not attack the content of the
traffic,..it attacked the machine listening on RPC.
If this is nothing but web traffic from a webserver,..just run the site on SSL
and forget it.

Hello,
Our software should transfer data between clients in a LAN.
How to transfer data (securely) within an firewall protected office
network?
The admin doesn't need to change firewall or any other settings, if
possible.
Which protocol/service prefered by admins?
- RPC (but W32 Blaster Worm uses vulnerability in RPC)
- Named Pipe (but not available if file and printer sharing is
disabled)
- TCP/IP (but in general admin have to open ports firewall manually)
- SNMP
- SSL
- SSH
Any help is highly apperciated.
Mario
