Im a final year student for COmputer Security / Forensic. Im planning to do a project which requires me to do encryption and decryption. My possible choice of language would be VB.Net. I was wondering if wad is running in my mind can be executed. Well, I would make a application where a part of it wil be promting the guest to register and I wanted to store the password in the database. I did some research and came across Salting and Hashing. I was wondering if is it possible to get the password which the user enters, salt it, hash it and encrypt it before I store in the database. If so, what is the best secured strong encryption can I use in VB.net. Because through out the research I have done, i have sen RInjdael as the most fav encryption algo which alot of programmers using.

VS2010 (SP1) / .NET 4 on Windows XP. The question is simple, the answer; not so much. When generating a salt, should the LENGTH of the salt be random, fixed or a random number within a (min/max) range? I am using RNGCryptoServiceProvider to generate the salt, just unsure of the length of the salt.

I'm creating a hash with the following
vb.net
Private Function String_Hash(ByVal text As String) Dim _hash As Byte() = _enc.GetBytes(text) Dim hash_alg As HashAlgorithm = New SHA512CryptoServiceProvider() Dim _chash As Byte() = hash_alg.ComputeHash(_hash) Dim sBuilder As New StringBuilder For Each b As Byte In _chash sBuilder.AppendFormat("{0:x2} ", b) Next Return sBuilder.ToString() End Function
What's a salt?How can I add it to the code?
I am at a bit of a loss at the moment. What I am basically writing is the password elements of a membership system. What I do is generate a random salt value, take the registered password, combine the two and then pass the new string through a function which will generate a SHAManaged 512 hash.
I then convert the hash and salt string into Byte arrays and store these in my database.The problem comes when I then compare a login attempt against the original value I am being supplied with a completely different hash for the password being presented by the user, even though it should be exactly the same.
Here is my code when someone registers their new account:

The garbage collector in .NET moves objects, so the object's address is not stable. How is Object's GetHashCode() method implemented?
I have an openfiledialog, I show the dialog and the user selects there file. How could I calculate the MD5 hash of the OFD.filename/file opened? Or calculate the SHA1, what ever is easiest.
PS: This is in Visual basic 2010 Express.
I know MD5 hashes have been asked about 1000+ times, but this question is slightly different.I am looking to find the true MD5 hash of an image, but without using a string for the file's location. I am looking to be able to call on the image inside of a picturebox rather than somewhere on my computer or the internet.
For example, I want to find the MD5 hash of an image inside of my picturebox.
If this doesn't make sense, please ask any questions you may have.
I have a page with a URL that includes a hash value (www.mysite.com/#123).What I want to do is use that value to determine what is displayed on the page - much like using a querystring.I am using the hash value because the content on the page can be changed client side (I am avoiding page reloads where possible) - if the user then links to another page and uses the back button to return, I need to use the hash value to display the page as it was when they left it.So I'm looking for an if statement that will look something like this:

I would like to write a function GetHashCodeOfList() which returns a hashcode of a list of strings regardless of order. Given 2 lists with the same strings should return the same hashcode.
ArrayList list1 = new ArrayList()
list1.Add("String1");
list1.Add("String2");
[Code].....
I can first sort the list, then combine the sorted list into 1 long string and then call GetHashCode(). However sorting is a slow operation. I can get the hash of each individual string (by calling string.GetHashCode()) in the list, then multiplying all hashes and calling Mod UInt32.MaxValue. For Example: "String1".GetHashCode() * "String2".GetHashCode * ... MOD UInt32.MaxValue. But this results in a number overflow.
I'm trying to figure out a way to compare two "salted-hash" strings. How can I do this? I know that the salt is a random generated value that's appended to the plain text, then we just compute the hash of that new string.So how can I compare these two values?

I am having issues to hash with sha 1 salted in vb. I have an SMF forum and it uses SHA 1 salted to encrypt its passwords. I want to make a program which is only available to users who have registered in my forum so I have to create a login system in my program. The problem is that how do I hash to SHA 1 salted in vb?I have explained what I want to do a bit more in details below:User opens program >They login using their forum account details >Program hashes the PASSWORD the user has entered to SHA 1 salted >The program then connects with the forum's database and compares the password value > (The Username is checked first tho)
View 4 RepliesI am porting over some code from .net (vb) to php and I came across some md5 hashing that I can't reproduce in php. In the .net one there are two functions one uses UTF-8 encoding and the other uses Unicode encoding. The output is a different hash when passed in a string
// First function (returns GUID)
Dim oHasher As Cryptography.MD5 = Cryptography.MD5.Create()
Dim oEncoder As New System.Text.UTF8Encoding()
Dim csData() As Byte

but they both produce the same result. Is it possible to produce the same results in php with md5 hashing?

I was asked by an employer to sort a hash table. I always thought that the usage of a hash table was in a way non-sort friendly. Am I wrong in thinking this, and if not can you point me to a good VB.Net(Yes Kill me now, but it's an old system) method of sorting a hash table.

How can I write above statement in VB.Net?
a is UInt32
url is String
k is Integer

Using this code on the javascript side and

Using memStream As New MemoryStream(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("Hello World!"))
Dim hash() As Byte = sha.ComputeHash(memStream)
Dim res As String = Encoding.Default.GetString(hash)
End Using
End Using
I have been unable to recreate the same hash for the same values with these two bits of code.
The javascript implementation returns: 7f83b1657ff1fc53b92dc18148a1d65dfc2d4b1fa3d677284addd200126d9069
and the vb.net example returns: ƒeñüS-ÁHÖ]ü-KÖw(JÝÒ mi"
What am I missing? I assume it's something to do with the character encoding?

I have some problems with the SHA1 hash value of a string. I'm trying to send a file from a client written in VB.net to a server written in PHP. My problem is that when I pass the same string to VB.net and PHP, the SHA1 value calculated by VB.net is completely different from the value calculated by PHP.
For example, I want to encode a string in Base64 and then calculate the SHA1 Hash of the Base64 string. When the computer executes this task from the vb.net version and from the PHP version I get two different SHA1 values, even if apparently the Base64 encoded string is the same:
VB.net: 2E97A53B09C482A831540B532845BCAC79BFACCF
PHP: 350A2080264E2724D4BCBC521C35264D264A1DAF
I'm surely missing something, could you point me in the right direction and tell me what I'm doing wrong here?

I saved an images hash number to a database so that when my application pulls in images, I can compare this hash number to the hash numbers of the images comming in. The purpose is that if one of the images comming in has the same hash number, I can flag it. It seems that the saved hash number for an image is not the same for the exactly the same image when it has come in. Is this because the hash number for an image can change depending on the pc where its being created?
