hi friend .Net framework have providers to support encryption: Cryptographic primitive Use Secret-key encryption (symmetric cryptography) Performs a transformation on data keeping the data from being read by third parties. This type of encryption uses a single shared secret key to encrypt and decrypt data. Public-key encryption (asymmetric cryptography) Performs a transformation on data keeping the data from being read by third parties. This type of encryption uses a public/private key pair to encrypt and decrypt data. Cryptographic signing Helps verify that data originates from a specific party by creating a digital signature that is unique to that party. This process also uses hash functions. Cryptographic hashes Maps data from any length to a fixed-length byte sequence. Hashes are statistically unique; a different two-byte sequence will not hash to the same value.
