General info

I use AES Encryption in most of my projects and this makes it much easier to get going.

Setup

Once you have this installed and referenced in your project you just need to referece Vdrio.Security.Encryption in the files you wish to use it in.

Code Examples

Initialization Example:

using Vdrio.Security.Encryption;

//Initialize with random 256-bit encryption key
AESEncryptor.Initialize();

//Gets the private key so you can save it for decryption later
string key = AESEncryptor.GetCurrentKey();

//Initialize with a known private key in the format of Base64 string
AESEncryptor.Initialize(keyString);

//Note: initialization will happen automatically when any method is called

Encryption Example:

//Secret string to Encrypt
string secretInfo = "mySuperSecretPassword";

//Create Initialization Vector (aka Public Key)
iv = AESEncryptor.CreateInitializor();

//Create new public key and keep reference
key = AESEncryptor.CreateNewKey();

//Encrypt secretInfo to Base 64 string. Encrypt can return Base 64 string or byte[] and has overloads to have byte[] or string inputs
encryptedSecretInfo = AESEncryptor.EncryptTo64String(secretInfo, iv);

Values in the above example:

key = "bvXeawD4xTVI9SmxjSXtBm8X/7hrdb0qdmQHXJO4cRc="

iv = "sVhK0HBOyrRTcRALzbxecg=="

encryptedSecretInfo = "rQN2NmmzqtL9uHx3p9Ajch28EOtYkmrjIbKp871kvuE="

Decryption Example:

//Encrypted string to Decrypt from previous example
encryptedSecretInfo = AESEncryptor.EncryptTo64String(secretInfo, iv);

//Set key to previous used key (only necessary when switching Private Keys)
AESEncryptor.SetKey(key);

//Decrypt info using the iv (public key) from previous example
string decryptedSecretInfo = AESEncryptor.Decrypt(encryptedSecretInfo, iv);

Values in the above example:

encryptedSecretInfo = "rQN2NmmzqtL9uHx3p9Ajch28EOtYkmrjIbKp871kvuE="

decryptedSecretInfo = "mySuperSecretPassword"

To-do list:

• Ability to store keys in encrypted file at specified location
• Non-static implementation to make it easier to use multiple private keys

Status

Project is: in progress
