| Keeping Passwords in a Database Secure |
| DotNetJunkies |
| Although it's not quite evident on the surface, the .NET Framework does offer strong support for storing passwords in a secure way and once you know how to do it, it's fairly easy. In this tutorial, you'll learn about authentication and how to use hashes alone and with salt for better password protection. |

| Security: Protect Private Data with the Cryptography Namespaces of the .NET Framework |
| MSDN |
| The .NET Framework includes a set of cryptographic services that extend the services provided by Windows through the Crypto API. In this article, the author explores the System.Security.Cryptography namespace and the programming model used to apply cryptographic transformations. He discusses reasons why cryptography is easier in .NET than it was before, including the easy programmatic acccess developers have to the cryptography APIs and the difference between symmetric and asymmetric algorithms. Along the way, a brief discussion of the most widely used algorithms, including RSA, DSA, Rijndael, SHA, and other hash algorithms, is provided. |

| Taking a Bite Out of ASP.NET ViewState |
| MSDN |
| The Web is stateless, and so are ASP.NET Pages. They are instantiated, executed, rendered, and disposed on every round trip to the server. As a Web developer, you can add statefulness using well-known techniques like storing state on the server in Session state or by posting a page back to itself. |

| Tiger.NET - a fast implementation of the Tiger Hash Algorithm |
| GotDotNet |
| !!!!!!!! please discard the WinTiger100.zip submission -> wrong file !!!!!!!! ____________________________________________________________ This is a fast implementation of the Tiger Hash Algorithm by Eli Biham and Ross Anderson, released in 1996. It is a safe alternative (so far) to the other common hash functions like MD5 or the SHA family, which recently showed some weaknesses. The code is written in Visual Basic.NET and implements the common HashAlgorithm of the .NET Framework 1.1, allowing it to be used with standard classes like CryptoStream. This package includes the sources and Visual Studio.NET projects for the real world applications WinTiger and TigerSum, plus a demo and verification of the correct handling of the official test vectors. Free to use in other applications, please check the README.TXT for details. |
