How to perform encprtion using RijndaelManaged


How to perform encprtion using RijndaelManaged:

To perform encryption using the RijndaelManaged class in C#, you can follow these steps:

Instantiate RijndaelManaged: Create an instance of the RijndaelManaged class, which represents the Rijndael encryption algorithm.

Set Key and Initialization Vector (IV): Specify the cryptographic key and an optional initialization vector (IV) to be used for encryption. Both the key and IV must be byte arrays.

Create Encryptor: Use the CreateEncryptor method of the RijndaelManaged instance to create an encryptor object. This object will perform the encryption process.

Encrypt Data: Use the encryptor object to encrypt the data. You can encrypt data from a stream, a byte array, or a string.

Dispose Resources: Make sure to properly dispose of resources, such as streams and encryptor objects, by using the using statement or manually calling the Dispose method.

Here's an example demonstrating how to perform encryption using RijndaelManaged in C#:

using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

using System.IO;
