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

Generating Salt - LENGTH Of Salt Be Random - Fixed Or A Random Number Within A (min/max) Range ?

Nov 26, 2011

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.

.net - Store SHA256 Hash In Access Database?

Feb 4, 2012

how to store a hash in my Access Database. Now I have generated a hash by salting a user password with the User ID (not highly secure I know, but plenty for my purposes). I have also stored the hashed values in the database as Base64 strings (manually, I haven't yet developed the module to do that automatically), however, when I go to retrieve the hash from the database I receive the hex code in place of the string. This is the code for the login button:

Sub prcLogin()
'Log User in
Dim ds As New DataSet
Dim blnCorrect As Boolean

[code]....

But when I run this instead of returning a value like "rlzhYoiO4+vpdJdsrFq5Sj9VBJ+FFYhIg9V5+z+jeNI=" which I stored in the database, it returns a value like "5C6BED0D94

Creating A List(Of String) Always Of Size 9?

Aug 4, 2010

I am creating a List(Of String), always of size 9.This list contains True/False values. I need to go through this list and find the 3 values that are True (will never be more than 3, but could be less) and then set 3 string values in my code to the 3 index's of those values + 1.

Here is my current code:

Private Sub SetDenialReasons(ByVal LoanData As DataRow)
Dim reasons As New List(Of String)
With reasons

[code]...

I had 3 True's next to each other in the array and the code failed with an exception saying count must be positive or something.Now if there are less than 3 True's, it should set the remaining DenialReason's that haven't been set yet as blank (however they are set as blank in the constructor already to account for this).
