How do you use the file.

I suppose you put getFile.cs in app_code but how do you use it then?

Sorry, I am a newbie.

Hello Lotiano, no, PBKDF2 is a hashing algorithm. Hashing is irreversible.

hallo Shawn,
Thanmk you for sharing your crypto library.
I have a question for you. is there a way to decrypt text?
I mean, can I use that library to crypt some sensible data, and then the decrypt them to show them in plain text?
Thank you!

Thanks. A lot. This is so much better than the alternatives I’ve seen where a temporary file is written and a FileStream is used with StreamResult (and then lost to the nether).

Thanks Shawn!

This is really cool, was recently reading up on salting and hashing and your code was really noob friendly. Thanks
