    <p>I am starting to use encryption and decryption in my web service. I am using the <strong>RSACryptoServiceProvider</strong> and when using the <em>Encrypt</em> &amp; <em>Decrypt</em> methods, I have no problem.</p> <p>However, as soon as I try to use the <strong>SignData</strong> method with <em>new SHA1CryptoServiceProvider()</em> as encryption method, I am unable to recover the original data. I am only able to verify them. Is it really not possible to retrieve the signed data? If so, what is the purpose of the whole signing process? And is there another possibility how to encrypt data by a certain algorithm?</p> <p>EDIT: I am posting the code, which is just an altered example from <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.security.cryptography.rsacryptoserviceprovider.decrypt.aspx" rel="nofollow">MSDN</a></p> <pre><code>static void Main() { try { //Create a UnicodeEncoder to convert between byte array and string. ASCIIEncoding ByteConverter = new ASCIIEncoding(); string dataString = "Data to Encrypt"; //Create byte arrays to hold original, encrypted, and decrypted data. byte[] dataToEncrypt = ByteConverter.GetBytes(dataString); byte[] encryptedData; byte[] signedData; byte[] decryptedData; byte[] unsignedData; var fileName = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["certificate"]; var password = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["password"]; var certificate = new X509Certificate2(fileName, password); //Create a new instance of the RSACryptoServiceProvider class // and automatically create a new key-pair. RSACryptoServiceProvider RSAalg = (RSACryptoServiceProvider)certificate.PrivateKey; //RSAPKCS1SignatureDeformatter def = (RSAPKCS1SignatureDeformatter)certificate.PrivateKey; //Display the origianl data to the console. Console.WriteLine("Original Data: {0}", dataString); //Encrypt the byte array and specify no OAEP padding. //OAEP padding is only available on Microsoft Windows XP or //later. encryptedData = RSAalg.Encrypt(dataToEncrypt, false); signedData = RSAalg.SignData(dataToEncrypt, new SHA1CryptoServiceProvider()); //Display the encrypted data to the console. Console.WriteLine("Encrypted Data: {0}", ByteConverter.GetString(encryptedData)); Console.WriteLine("Signed Data: {0}", ByteConverter.GetString(signedData)); //Pass the data to ENCRYPT and boolean flag specifying //no OAEP padding. decryptedData = RSAalg.Decrypt(encryptedData, false); //In the next line I get the error of wrong data unsignedData = RSAalg.Decrypt(signedData, false); //Display the decrypted plaintext to the console. Console.WriteLine("Decrypted plaintext: {0}", ByteConverter.GetString(decryptedData)); Console.WriteLine("Unsigned plaintext: {0}", ByteConverter.GetString(unsignedData)); } catch (CryptographicException e) { //Catch this exception in case the encryption did //not succeed. Console.WriteLine(e.Message); } Console.Read(); } </code></pre>

    2. COSo, are there other methods, which will allow me to en-/de-crypt with RSA algorithm and SHA1 hash?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
