AVRdude Encrypt/decryption HEX File On The Fly In VB?
Oct 7, 2010
i am looking to decrypt my HEX code file for an ATTiny chip and programming it using the AVRDude command line interface. Problem being, i do not want the user to be able to see what the HEX file is at any given time.
Can the VB.net Cryptography crypt the HEX file before i put it onto the server and then decrypt it after the program downloads it from the server and runs it through the program without seeing the decrypted HEX file?
Obviously the HEX file can not stay encrypted while being programmed to the ATTiny chip so how can i go about it so that i can create the original HEX file to be programmed within the program without having to worry about it writing a temporary file to the hard drive and then deleting it afterwards? (Because they could close the program after it does that temp file and they would be able to navigate and open it and see the code)

I've got a site using .netCART. It's running fine in production with Windows Server 2003 and .NET 2.0. On the new server (Windows Server 2008) everything is working except for credit card decryption in the store admin. No errors are being sent, no exceptions thrown, just the encrypted string being output to the screen instead of a decrypted credit card number.
Dim strCCEncrypt As String strCCEncrypt = Trim(DataRow.Item("CreditCard")) strCCEncrypt = tools.Decrypt(strCCEncrypt) 'tools is a .netCART utility
i will like to know if it will be possible to decrypt and encrypted file in vb.net or any without knowing the form of encryption..any information on how to go by it... in that if you lose the form on encryption can it be decrypted?
I am actually really new to VB and C#. From numerous tutorials that i found online i was able to create a small program that will encrypt a file. However I am having a really hard time decrying it back.[code]All I am trying to do is to create a program that will decrypte these file with an upload button. Our system encrypts the files to prevent operators from changing the results, we need to trend the data. However it will take way to long to use the online tool provided with the software. A desktop tool will save us much more time. The files generated are 70mb and up.
Ok so I've made an encrypting/decrypting program and I've found a small bug with it. It will encrypt plain text files fine, except for the last character ( does anyone know how to fix this by the way? ) But when it comes to enrypting PNG Images.. well here's is the before and after files:
I am trying to make a key that will be used in file encryption/decryption for my application. However, there is no user data involved with this application (As i would usually use the user's password to generate the encryption key), so i have to turn to another method.
I am thinking that maybe it is possible to generate a completely random key the first time the program runs, then save this key inside the program so that it is inaccessible by the user. The user will not be shown this key, but the key MUST be randomly generated for each application, and it also must stay constant once it is created.
What I've decided to start working on is pretty much a personal project but something I may use in my UNI course in due time. I'm creating a security program with a set of access codes (yes I am a bit of a star trek fan) - 4 in total to be exact. I want to be able to use an Encrypted key file in form of a simple notepad created text file to update the codes at any due time. All I'm looking to do is write the access codes to the text file (say for a friend to use the program), Encrypt the file through the program and be able to also decrypt to obtain the new access codes on demand also via the same program. Once decrypted the codes can be read and verified if the user has entered each one correctly. I could hard code the access codes into the program but would rather do it the way I've thought of.
Back in the days of the old VB6 there was a simple method but for some reason that doesnt work any more. What I guess I'm looking to do is have 4 text fields where 4 digit access codes are typed into, have the program take them and encrypt each one is then written to the text file. Hoping that will make it a bit clearer what I'm trying to achieve as I think I made it sound like I want to encrypt the text file after the info has been written to it, which is of course one option so wouldn't mind know how to do that too!
I would like to know if it is possible to be able to encrypt a file and have my application be able to decrypt it and ammed the file as necessary. and then when the program exits it will encrypt the file back up.
I'm just getting started with Visual Basic .NET and I'm currently stuck on the following problem: how can I encrypt/decrypt a file with asymmetric encryption?
Essentially, I'm trying to figure out how I can write the following pseudocode in VB
Has anyone used these methods? I tried File.Encrypt on a text file, and I did not get an exception, however the Encrypt method did not work (the file was unchanged afterwards).
I need some help on saving/reading xml from/to dataset. I would like to make that complete file is encrypted and not only some elements inside or part of file.Currently this is not working in any way at all.[code]
So I have a connection string which is read from a basic text file. This string contains a password. Is there anyway to encrypt this text file so that anyone can't just open it up and read it. The program will still be able to read it.
I ended up getting this properly working, as far as encrypting a file goes:How to encrypt and decrypt a file by using Visual Basic .NET or Visual Basic 2005 However, the catch is I have to change the name of the output file. What I was hoping to do is overwrite the original with the encrypted file, but when I tried that on a large file, it ended up only getting about 8 bytes of it.
Does anybody have any suggestions or recommendations? The overall idea is that I want to keep a file encrypted until it needs to be unencrypted for use by a program, but I'm not sure if there are better tools out there or if there's a better way of accomplishing this.
Question 2: I would really, really like to encrypt an entire folder, which I'm guessing would be faster than file by file, but when I try I keep getting access denied errors, even with DOS Cipher. Is there a way to do this with a key?
I made a program that encrypts data and puts it on a txt file. There are two parts of information that need to be "linked" to the other. Say its Person 1, then Person 1 gender, they need to be placed together. Each encrypted piece of seperated by a ";". I have it read the file and place the information on a Rich Text Box. How can I read all the encrypted info and stop at ";" then place that into a variable then read the next bit? I did this a while back but I used StreamReader/StreamWrite and can't remember how I did it. Right now it reads through the open file dialog and writes it to the Text Box with this command writetext.LoadFile(sFilePath, RichTextBoxStreamType.PlainText)
I have a page that has a few text boxes on it and are filled based upon a persons information. Like Name, telephone number, address etc
The data is stored in an Access DB.
I want to add a check box and have a label beside it that if it's checked it shows a hyperlink to a pdf file, if its not checked the link disappears, so toggle between the two.
Here's the check box I have so far, which isn't much:
<br><input type=checkbox name="Password" value="<%=oRs("Password")%>" size=40> Check to show PDF File: <a href="<%=oRs("Password")%>"><%=oRs("Password")%></a><br><br>
I need this hyperlink/ string to be encrypted based upon the persons name, so each person has its own pdf file and no one can just guess anothers pdf file and have access to it....
The pdf file will be stored in a virtual directory within the site.
I don't know Vb or asp, and I'm doing this all in notepad ++
I have the files in a listview control, with checkboxes. I would like it to encrypt all files ending with .rc4, that are listed in the listview. But keep the original of file extension E.g : file.txt --> file_txt.rc4 How can I get it to encrypt multiple items. I already tried and still can't write in...
Here my code Private Sub BtnEncrypt_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BtnEncrypt.Click Dim ByteConverter As Encoding = Encoding.UTF8 Dim Key As Byte() = ByteConverter.GetBytes(TextBox2.Text) If ListView1.Items.Count <> 0 Then [Code] .....
I have been successful in making an anti-hack program that uses a list from the local computer, this is at the moment a text file that can easily be modified, so my question is.Is there a way to replace this .txt file with a more secure format, one that cannot be decrypted (or is very hard to decrypt) without changing all my code?
the only thing i have to use the txt file for is adding the contained items to a listbox. Also, it would be possible for be to use SQL as i am using a dedicated server for the automatic update, so can use it as a remote library for the app the connect to.
I tried with the following code. It encrypted the file but after I FTP'd the file to my vendor he was not able to decrypt it.Then realized that this code is not using my PGP Keys to encrypt the file. It's creating a new key automatically. That's the reason my vendor is not able to decrypt the file. How can I encrypt the file using my PGP keys? So that my vendor can decrypt the file using same PGP keys.
How can i encrypt or decrypt only a part of a file? I try, and i keep getting an error message that says that the stream might be corrupt. By the way, it is ok to convert the text to a byte array using the system.text.encoding.ascii.getbytes() right? The reason i want to encrypt/compress only a part of a file is because i don't want to encrypt or compress the file header. That way the program can gather info about whether the file is compressed or encrypted.
I've attempted using code snippets as a test to encrypt a string, save it to a file & the reload it back, decrypting it. I consistently get a "Padding is invalid and cannot be removed." error on decrypting the string.
I am interested in knowing if non-text files like .xls/.xlsx or .doc files can be encrypted... From the Devlopers Guide on MSDN, I found code snippets that allow encryption / decryption of .txt files. This works absolutely fine. However, I would like to know if similar procedure can be used to encrypt/decrypt file other than .txt file.
I have created a encryptor/decryptor that allows you to encrypt/decrypt text in a textbox, or a file. The basis of the system is to allow a user to thoroughly protect data within their system. Is there anyone that would be willing to test the program?
