Abstract :
Some related works solve the protection issue of adaptable documents by using crypting methods on data flows before sending them to the client´s application. However, hypermedia documents that are concerned by adaptation are often computed on the flight in order to satisfy the specificities of client platform, and must then be adapted a posteriori. This paper intends to give a solution to the following issues: (i) protecting a document and its resources from third part. For this purpose, we propose an architecture based on a trusted intermediary wrapper. This wrapper is able to decrypt the document sent by the document server, but it is also able to adapt them in consideration to the client´s profile; (ii) protecting the access to the resources against unauthorized person
