.NET Forum / .NET Framework / Security / December 2006TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider - Secret Key Length
Hi, Consider a string that's being chosen by the end-user as his/her password. In this scenario, consider it to be 5 characters long. How am I supposed to encrypt this using the TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider? The algorithm demands a given length of secret key, however, I cannot force the user to enter exactly X characters long password! I'm really confused. Any help would be highly appreciated, TIA, Mehdi Have a look at the PasswordDeriveBytes class. This allows to generate a fixed length key from a password. ----- Dominick Baier (http://www.leastprivilege.com) > Hi, > Consider a string that's being chosen by the end-user as his/her [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > TIA, > Mehd Wow, I just found the cure and removed my question from the group.
