Understanding Cryptography
A .net overview of cryptography for completing projects with easy
Cryptography is a vast topic, and often developer needs to use it in some part of their project. By the way, not all the developers have time or need to learn all the details in deep because their job does not require it. Anyway, there will be a time when we will have to face this discipline, and we will need the right tools for completing the project.
In this article, I will explain the basics of cryptography and give you some smart solutions to quickly achieve your goals without wasting time.
The roadmap that will explain the basics of cryptography in this article:
- The basics of cryptography
- Using a hashing algorithm
- Using symmetric encryption
- Using asymmetric encryption
Understanding the Basics of Cryptography
Cryptography is the science that converts ordinary plain text (or data) into unintelligible text (or data), and vice-versa. Thanks to Cryptography, we can store data safely and transmit it so that only those for whom it is intended can read and process it. Cryptography does not only protects data from theft or alteration but can also be used for…
