I am looking into the same that as per brian. But the problem here is that all the rijndael samples available in the net are mostly using a Text File but is there any way of doing it in a Online Mode where when i get the data in the text box i convert it and put directly in to the database.

Any Hints on this would be much better and all the samples are defining the key from the Rijndael class itself, can't we provide the Key of our own.

I'm assuming you mean the Rijndael encryption algorithm - in which case RinjdaelManaged would be of use. The MSDN documentation (previous link) has examples, or there are lots of other references, for example see here.

I see (comments to other reply) that you are looking at implementing this yourself... some thoughts:

  • don't
  • why?
  • don't

Unless this is purely for interest, stick to the existing implementation. It will eat time, and potentially introduce security weaknesses. I can't think of a good reason to rewrite this.

If you just need a working implementation check out the Rijndael Documentation on MSDN. The Rijndael implementation looks pretty convenient to interface with.

It's of course a different story if you are trying implement it yourself.
