C# Ending Regex statement

I have this code

Regex.Match(contents, @"Security=(?<Security>\D+)").Groups["Security"].Value;

this makes the following:

Security=SSPI;Database=Datab_ob

How do I make the Regex cut off at ; so i would only get Security=SSPI

you could to use a positive lookahead to look for the ; after your string, but not to match it. Using this:

Security=(?<Security>\w+(?=;))

as the regex pattern will get any words after the '=' and before the ';' into the Security named group

How about this?

 "Security=(?<Security>\D+?);"
