How which this work? The app need to download a binary xml file while would
have an encrypted NSData in it. I need to encrypt it here and the app of
coursed need to DL it from our server and decrypt it.

Is there some sample code for doing this w/o requiring any user interaction
with keychains/passwords?

Thanks,

Trygve
