Hi!
I just want to know if it's common to decrypt a Session-Object in a
ASP.NET application.
My collegue says that I have not do this because the information is
stored on the server.
Any suggestions?

Yup, a Session object is stored on a server, and not in a client's browser
(cookies).    As usual, take security precautions anyways if you feel the
need.
