. Net Security And Cryptography

Part of the Integrated .NET Series, this book provides a practical and comprehensive treatment on implementing both cryptography and security features on the .NET platform - using the C# and VB .NET programming languages. It provides focused and deta iled code examples that demonstrate the most important concepts, with commentary on how the code examples work. The book also provides a substantial mathematical and theoretical background on the underlying cryptographic concepts. After reading this book and experimenting with the provided example programs, the reader should have a good understanding of the major cryptographic algorithms and standard cryptographic programming techniques. Readers should also gain a solid understanding of how .N ET security works and how to implement user-based and code access security in their own .NET programs.
