I have a webApplication in which i want to encrypt the data using Public key and whan it reach to the destination webapplication it will decrypted there with corresponding private key . Is there is any way to creating this pair of key?
View 3 RepliesI have a problem hopefully someone out there will steer me in the right direction.
I have a web application that I am going to put on a standalone cd - currently the data is "Safe" because the database is in in the app folder and the code is located in the codebehind.
My problem is i'm putting this on a CD as a standalone site, anyone can access the database, or find the XML....
Is there a way to generate an encrypted Database / XML Page, that is complied with the CD, that the program can decrypt and access with a embedded key?
I want to encrypt the password entered by the user....how do i go about it?is there any built-in function for it or will i be required to write a code for it?
View 5 RepliesI received some code, a small c# asp.net application which manually posts a shared username/pwd to a 3rd party website for auto-logins from our intranet site. During transit the password is encrypted, but not within the application. Within this application a namevaluecollection is used and the username and password are hard coded. Originally the thought was, who cares if its hard coded because its shared between everyone anyway. Now we want to encrypt the username and password from within the application. I'm not sure the best way to accomplish the goal of making sure the password is encrypted "at rest". Normally I've seen passwords stored and encrypted within a database. I know we'll obviously have to move the password out of the application and store it somewhere else, I'm just not sure where. Do we move the username and pwd to the web.config file? I really am not sure the best way to approach this.

View 1 RepliesI have a content-sensitive firewall between my clients and my server. If we exclude SSL solution (it's not available in my case) then I was thinking of a javascript library which encrypts custom fields at client-side and a .NET class decrypts them at server-side. Is there any solution out of the box (maybe a server control) ?

I am wondering how to encrypt the below information in the "web.config" file of the "Account" folder (where we have the secured pages):
[Code]....
My issue here is that even after I compiled my application (using "aspnet_compiler -v /reports c:
eports"), the information inside the web.config file of the Account folder still not encrypted, and I want to publish my site to the customer server. So, since this server is a customer server, then they can access this "web.config" file and change our web-application security behaviour (correct me if I am wrong). Basically, I don't want the customer to even have access to our secured pages when they access our web-application using the web browser. How to solve this issue?

The system is throwing an "System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException" at the line
Dim certificate As X509Certificate2 = certificateCollection(0)
Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong or tell me another way to access the public key

I want the login password to not be sent in plaintext (due to the risk of hijacking). I know that this can be achieved in principle using MD5 or the like, but is there a common implementation for use with Asp.Net? Of course, it's crucial that the resulting hash (?) isn't easy to decrypt. When I read various posts on this matter, some people say it's just to do a reverse on the encrypted string, so that in effect, this is totally useless.
View 6 RepliesI have been looking at ways of encrypting querystrings and I have found a few good examples.. but, I just want some clarification on what is most often referred to as the EncryptionKey and the characters that are in that key....Is there basically an unlimited number of alphanumeric combinations that could be used in the following code as the encryption key, is there anything that someone should be CAREFUL about including in that key?
using System.Security.Cryptography;
private static string EncryptionKey = "!#$a54?3";

I have written a couple methods that encrypt and decrypt the appSettings section of my web.config file using the WebConfigurationManager. I just hooked up the methods to the page_load event to test that it works, which it does. Now I need to deploy to a web farm and need advice. What is the best way to make it so I can encrypt, but more importantly decrypt the web.config when I need to? I thought about putting a hidden page with "encrypt" and "decrypt" buttons, but that seems risky. What is the "accepted" method for rolling out something like this?
View 1 RepliesI have been killing myself over this for a couple weeks now and cannot find a viable solution. Here's my scenario:
I have a DTSX package that imports user data from an external database. It then creates user accounts and profiles in the local database. Users can also be created via a custom ASP.NET Membership Provider. The provider must be able to authenticate both types of users.
This was all fine and dandy during development because passwords were stored as clear text. However, now that we're ready for release the passwords format of the provider must be set to encrypted and so the users created via the DTSX must be created with an encrypted password. (I'd prefer the passwords were hashed but the client's requirements are that passwords be recoverable). The real problem seems to be creating an encrypted password within the DTSX that will be decryptable by the ASP.NET Membership Provider.
My original solution was to have the DTSX call a CLR stored procedure that had access to the same encryption logic as the provider. I got it working but our client wouldn't enable CLR integration. So that's out the window. Now I'm investigating alternatives. One alternative is to simply use the built-in encryption methods of T-SQL. But how do I share the keys used for the encryption/decryption?
My question is, is it possible to generate a password in T-SQL, say using EncryptByKey, that will also be decryptable by my provider? This means that the key in SQL must match the key in my machineKey configuration.
Is aspnet_regiis.exe secure? If i encrypt using aspnet_regiis.exe, will it automatically decrypt the string and wont give any error? Need an insight into this stuff.... Is Rsa the best option or wat? Wat's the best way to encrypt/decrypt programmatically?
View 10 RepliesMy problem is that I'm going to have a SQL Server database and website that accesses that database via a hosting provider, most likely GoDaddy.com, using ASP.Net. I need to make sure the connection string in the web.config file is as secure as possible, because the database will actually be storing trivia questions for a game I'm developing, and the clients will be accessing these questions, saving specific state related details, and other details, to the database, so every player that plays the game will have their details stored in this database. I need to ensure hacking is very difficult to accomplish.
From my research it appears as though the only viable solution for your web.config when you've got a hosting account with something like GoDaddy.com is to use SQL Server security to connect to your SQL Server database and place those details in the web.config file. Is this correct? It seems that this is the most likely scenario for most users, because we don't have access to our hosting providers IIS servers in order to use Windows authentication with SQL Server access and then use DPAPI encryption from there.
I have an internal web application which uses a custom encryption class to convert strings to varbinary(50) columns in SQL. When I display the table in a GridView, I want to use the RowDataBound event to decrypt the encrypted column back to a string to display.
Currently I have the following in my RowDataBound event:
[Code]....
This throws an exception when I try to load the page: TransformFinalBlock - Length of the data to decrypt is invalid.
I have tried just fetching the data from SQL in my query but the e.Row.Cells(3).Text evaluates to System.Byte[], so I tried using CAST([EncrytedColumn] AS varchar(50)) to convert the varbinary(50) to varchar(50), but this still resulted in the same exception being thrown.
My only solution so far has been to manually fetch the SQL data into a DataTable and decrypt the column before displaying it in the GridView, but I prefer the automated method of binding the SQLDataSource to the GridView.

I have some data I want to encrypt in an ASP.NET MVC application to prevent users from tampering with it. I can use the Cryptography classes to do the actual encryption/decryption, no problem there. The main problem is figuring out where to store the encryption key and managing changes to it.
Since ASP.NET already maintains a machineKey for various things (ViewData encryption, etc), I was wondering if there were any ASP.NET functions which let me encrypt/decrypt my own data using the machineKey? This way I would not have to devise my own key management system.
