Re: [DOTNET] Encrypt Key in the code

[Farhan Sh]

Thanks for the help.

Here is what i am doing:

I am writing Voice Enabled .NET application. Problem is that i don't want
user to say their username and password as it's kinda extra work. So i
wrote small route that encrypts username and password, and gives user
Randomized number. Problem is i don't want anybody to know the Key as this
application will have access to sensitive data.

FOllowing is sample code:

   gKey = "HijsiImnjfiuIHJNkdhj123!hdjhd*njdhd" ' I want to hide this

            Dim feService As New FE_Symmetric()

            Dim strUsername, strPassword As [String]
            Dim i As Integer

            strUsername = feService.EncryptData(gKey, username.Text)
            Response.Write("Username: " & strUsername & "<br>")

            strPassword = feService.EncryptData(gKey, password.Text)
            Response.Write("Username: " & strPassword & "<br>")

            strUsername = feService.DecryptData(gKey, strUsername)
            Response.Write("Username: " & strUsername & "<br>")

            strPassword = feService.DecryptData(gKey, strPassword)
            Response.Write("Username: " & strPassword & "<br>")

            Response.Write("Your Username to access Email is: " & Int
((99999 * Rnd()) + 1))

hope this explains it.
