Rijndael Key
Rijndael is based on the block cipher method which uses a symmetric key encryption technique. It works with the help of invertible and discrete layers
- Linear Mix Transform
- Non – Linear Transform
- Key Addition Transform
As for C#, the Rijndael key supports key lengths of 128, 192, and 256 bits and also supports blocks of 128 (by default), 192, and 256 bits. Rijndael key is very much similar to AES(Advance Encryption Standard).
Encrypt and Decrypt Using Rijndael Key in C#
To keep data secure and protected it is necessary to keep the data encrypted. As we know that in C# and in other languages too there are many ways for encrypting data. The Data Encryption Standard method used for encryption was not promising good security that led to the invention of a highly secure tool called Rijndael Key by Vincent Rijmen and Joan Daemon. In this article, we will learn about the Rijndael key and perform step-by-step Encryption and Decryption of certain data by using Rijndael Key in C#.
