how to encrypting strings with SHA1, but all of the code I have found does not work or it is to complex for my program. I have found a website that has a encrypting demo program. It worked well so I email the programmer and he gave me this code.

I'm using the below function to generate an MD5SH1 hash for SQL backup files.This works well, has progress report etc but is slow if using large files.
Could I generate the MD5 at the same time as SH1 rather than having to process the file twice, doubling the time taken? What about converting an MD5 result to SHA1?

I've been trying to work on a personal project, in which the user enters in a text string in the first text box, and when the user clicks the "encrypt" button, the SHA1 hash of the text appears in the next text box. I've googled around for some information on this, and haven't found much for Windows Forms and SHA1, only MD5. I've checked a lot of things on MSDN but to no avail.
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to decrypt a SHA1 string in VB.Net, knowing the key? I have seen "decryption" of credentials before, however - in Java: [URL]
View 3 RepliesI 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?

Say I have a List(Of Tag) with Tag being an object. One member of Tag, Tag.Description, is a string, and I want to make a comma-separated concatenation of the Description members.Is there an easier way to do this than to read the Description members into a List(Of String) and then use the Join function?

I have a requirement where I have to pass some values into the next page via querystring.This querystring is coming from third party and they need to have it on the otherpage for some analysis. I just do a response.redirect and add the querystring that i recieve from them to the other page. My problem is that the .net environment is encoding/encrypting some of the special characters used by them which I dont want as it does not bring back the correct values in the new page.

View 13 RepliesI 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.

I am currently using a binary formatter to serialize/deserialize some data objects. Some of the properties in the classes are Strings. When the data is written you can open the file with a text editor and can see the raw String data. Is there any way to encrypt the Strings or the entire object before it is serialized? I have looked at this thread here [URL] but the code is in C# and the free converters I tried for some reason did not like the code. This is the code I am using currently.

View 1 RepliesIm using Rijndael (as AES algorithm) for encrypting. I encrypt the values (objects properties) and serialize the object to xml an dsend the xml to the receiver via a web service. I want to pass along the encrypted symmetric key that I used to encrypt the data. But what key should I pass along?
My decryption algorithm looks like this (vb.net):
CODE:
If I want to decrypt the encrypted string I have to use both key and IV, but I think I have to pass along only a key value. Do I have to do this another way or what should I pass along? My specification says that the values have to be encrypted using AES and a 128 bits key.
Here is my code for encrypting a file:
Public Shared Function AESFileEncrypt(inputFilename As String, outputFilename As String) As Boolean
'Create SymmetricAlgorithm object and specify the Key and IV.
Dim AES As RijndaelManaged = New RijndaelManaged
[CODE]...........
This happens with large files. I gather that I have to use a fixed size buffer and read the file in small chunks, copying those chunks from the input to the output stream, until I reach the end of the input file.
