下面是一个简单的例子，在c#中使用AES CBC模式加密字符串，并使用随机IV和HMAC和密码派生密钥，以显示基本的移动部分:

private byte[] EncryptBytes(byte[] key, byte[] plaintext)
{
    using (var cipher = new RijndaelManaged { Key = key })
    {
        using (var encryptor = cipher.CreateEncryptor())
        {
            var ciphertext = encryptor.TransformFinalBlock(plaintext, 0, plaintext.Length);

            // IV is prepended to ciphertext
            return cipher.IV.Concat(ciphertext).ToArray();
        }
    }
}

private byte[] DecryptBytes(byte[] key, byte[] packed)
{
    using (var cipher = new RijndaelManaged { Key = key })
    {
        int ivSize = cipher.BlockSize / 8;

        cipher.IV = packed.Take(ivSize).ToArray();

        using (var encryptor = cipher.CreateDecryptor())
        {
            return encryptor.TransformFinalBlock(packed, ivSize, packed.Length - ivSize);
        }
    }
}

private byte[] AddMac(byte[] key, byte[] data)
{
    using (var hmac = new HMACSHA256(key))
    {
        var macBytes = hmac.ComputeHash(data);

        // HMAC is appended to data
        return data.Concat(macBytes).ToArray();
    }
}

private bool BadMac(byte[] found, byte[] computed)
{
    int mismatch = 0;

    // Aim for consistent timing regardless of inputs
    for (int i = 0; i < found.Length; i++)
    {
        mismatch += found[i] == computed[i] ? 0 : 1;
    }

    return mismatch != 0;
}

private byte[] RemoveMac(byte[] key, byte[] data)
{
    using (var hmac = new HMACSHA256(key))
    {
        int macSize = hmac.HashSize / 8;

        var packed = data.Take(data.Length - macSize).ToArray();

        var foundMac = data.Skip(packed.Length).ToArray();

        var computedMac = hmac.ComputeHash(packed);

        if (this.BadMac(foundMac, computedMac))
        {
            throw new Exception("Bad MAC");
        }

        return packed;
    }            
}

private List<byte[]> DeriveTwoKeys(string password)
{
    var salt = new byte[] { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 };

    var kdf = new Rfc2898DeriveBytes(password, salt, 10000);

    var bytes = kdf.GetBytes(32); // Two keys 128 bits each

    return new List<byte[]> { bytes.Take(16).ToArray(), bytes.Skip(16).ToArray() };
}

public byte[] EncryptString(string password, String message)
{
    var keys = this.DeriveTwoKeys(password);

    var plaintext = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(message);

    var packed = this.EncryptBytes(keys[0], plaintext);

    return this.AddMac(keys[1], packed);
}

public String DecryptString(string password, byte[] secret)
{
    var keys = this.DeriveTwoKeys(password);

    var packed = this.RemoveMac(keys[1], secret);

    var plaintext = this.DecryptBytes(keys[0], packed);

    return Encoding.UTF8.GetString(plaintext);
}

public void Example()
{
    var password = "correcthorsebatterystaple";

    var secret = this.EncryptString(password, "Hello World");

    Console.WriteLine("secret: " + BitConverter.ToString(secret));

    var recovered = this.DecryptString(password, secret);

    Console.WriteLine(recovered);
}

我有一个名为X509Crypto的开源项目，它利用证书来加密和解密字符串。它很容易使用。下面是一个如何使用它的例子:

1. 2 .使用X509Crypto命令行生成新的加密证书和密钥对

>x509crypto.exe
X509Crypto> makecert -context user -keysize medium -alias myvault

Certificate with thumbprint B31FE7E7AE5229F8186782742CF579197FA859FD was added to X509Alias "myvault" in the user X509Context

X509Crypto>

2. 使用Encrypt CLI命令向新的X509Alias添加一个秘密

X509Crypto> encrypt -text -alias myvault -context user -secret apikey -in "80EAF03248965AC2B78090"

Secret apikey has been added to X509Alias myvault in the user X509Context

X509Crypto>

3.在程序中引用该秘密

一旦你建立了一个X509Alias并添加了你的秘密，在你的程序中使用Org检索它们是很简单的。X509Crypto nuget包安装:

using Org.X509Crypto;

namespace SampleApp
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            var Alias = new X509Alias(@"myvault", X509Context.UserReadOnly);
            var apiKey = Alias.RecoverSecret(@"apikey");
        }
    }
}

BouncyCastle是一个很棒的。net加密库，它可以作为Nuget包安装到你的项目中。比起目前System.Security.Cryptography库中可用的东西，我更喜欢它。它为你提供了更多可用算法的选择，并为这些算法提供了更多的模式。

这是一个TwoFish实现的例子，它是由Bruce Schneier(我们所有偏执的人的英雄)编写的。这是一个像Rijndael一样的对称算法 (又名AES)。它是AES标准的三个最终入选者之一，是Bruce Schneier编写的另一个著名算法BlowFish的兄弟姐妹。

使用bouncycastle的第一件事是创建一个加密器类，这将使它更容易在库中实现其他块密码。下面的加密器类接受一个泛型参数T，其中T实现了IBlockCipher，并有一个默认构造函数。

UPDATE: Due to popular demand I have decided to implement generating a random IV as well as include an HMAC into this class. Although from a style perspective this goes against the SOLID principle of single responsibility, because of the nature of what this class does I reniged. This class will now take two generic parameters, one for the cipher and one for the digest. It automatically generates the IV using RNGCryptoServiceProvider to provide good RNG entropy, and allows you to use whatever digest algorithm you want from BouncyCastle to generate the MAC.

接下来只需在新类上调用加密和解密方法，下面是使用twofish的示例:

var encrypt = new Encryptor<TwofishEngine, Sha1Digest>(Encoding.UTF8, key, hmacKey);

string cipher = encrypt.Encrypt("TEST");   
string plainText = encrypt.Decrypt(cipher);

替换像TripleDES这样的分组密码也很容易:

var des = new Encryptor<DesEdeEngine, Sha1Digest>(Encoding.UTF8, key, hmacKey);

string cipher = des.Encrypt("TEST");
string plainText = des.Decrypt(cipher);

最后，如果你想使用AES和SHA256 HMAC，你可以做以下事情:

var aes = new Encryptor<AesEngine, Sha256Digest>(Encoding.UTF8, key, hmacKey);

cipher = aes.Encrypt("TEST");
plainText = aes.Decrypt(cipher);

The hardest part about encryption actually deals with the keys and not the algorithms. You'll have to think about where you store your keys, and if you have to, how you exchange them. These algorithms have all withstood the test of time, and are extremely hard to break. Someone who wants to steal information from you isn't going to spend eternity doing cryptanalysis on your messages, they're going to try to figure out what or where your key is. So #1 choose your keys wisely, #2 store them in a safe place, if you use a web.config and IIS then you can encrypt parts of the the web.config, and finally if you have to exchange keys make sure that your protocol for exchanging the key is secure.

更新2 改变比较方法以减轻定时攻击。点击这里查看更多信息http://codahale.com/a-lesson-in-timing-attacks/。还更新到默认PKCS7填充，并添加了新的构造函数，以允许最终用户选择他们想要使用的填充。感谢@CodesInChaos的建议。

如果您正在使用ASP。你现在可以使用。Net 4.0以后的内置功能了。

System.Web.Security.MachineKey

. net 4.5有MachineKey.Protect()和MachineKey.Unprotect()。

. net 4.0有MachineKey.Encode()和MachineKey.Decode()。你应该将MachineKeyProtection设置为“All”。

ASP之外。Net这个类似乎在每次应用程序重新启动时都会生成一个新键，所以不起作用。在ILSpy中，如果缺少适当的app.settings，它就会生成自己的默认值。你可以在ASP.Net之外设置。

我还没找到非asp的。系统外的净等值。网络名称空间。

加密是编程中非常常见的问题。我认为最好是安装一个包来为您做这个任务。也许是一个简单的开源NuGet项目 简单Aes加密

密钥在配置文件中，因此很容易在生产环境中更改，而且我没有看到任何缺点。

<MessageEncryption>
  <EncryptionKey KeySize="256" Key="3q2+796tvu/erb7v3q2+796tvu/erb7v3q2+796tvu8="/>
</MessageEncryption>

很好的例子如何做到这一点使用PGPCore与BouncyCastle，非常简单的解决方案:https://blog.bitscry.com/2018/07/05/pgp-encryption-and-decryption-in-c/

我尝试了不同的解决方案，但这对我来说是最好的，有些bug，但这是完美的。

using (PGP pgp = new PGP())
{
// Generate keys

// Encrypt file

pgp.EncryptFileAndSign(@"C:\TEMP\keys\content.txt", @"C:\TEMP\keys\content__encrypted_signed.pgp", @"C:\TEMP\keys\public.asc", @"C:\TEMP\keys\private.asc", "password", true, true);
// Decrypt file
pgp.DecryptFile(@"C:\TEMP\keys\content__encrypted.pgp", @"C:\TEMP\keys\content__decrypted.txt", @"C:\TEMP\keys\private.asc", "password");
// Decrypt signed file
pgp.DecryptFile(@"C:\TEMP\keys\content__encrypted_signed.pgp", @"C:\TEMP\keys\content__decrypted_signed.txt", @"C:\TEMP\keys\private.asc", "password");

// Encrypt stream
using (FileStream inputFileStream = new FileStream(@"C:\TEMP\keys\content.txt", FileMode.Open))
using (Stream outputFileStream = File.Create(@"C:\TEMP\keys\content__encrypted2.pgp"))
using (Stream publicKeyStream = new FileStream(@"C:\TEMP\keys\public.asc", FileMode.Open))
    pgp.EncryptStream(inputFileStream, outputFileStream, publicKeyStream, true, true);

// Decrypt stream
using (FileStream inputFileStream = new FileStream(@"C:\TEMP\keys\content__encrypted2.pgp", FileMode.Open))
using (Stream outputFileStream = File.Create(@"C:\TEMP\keys\content__decrypted2.txt"))
using (Stream privateKeyStream = new FileStream(@"C:\TEMP\keys\private.asc", FileMode.Open))
    pgp.DecryptStream(inputFileStream, outputFileStream, privateKeyStream, "password");
}
