在asp.net加解密连接字符串
When we use Sql authentication to connect to database it will be better if we encrypt and decrypt the connection string for security purpose because the userid and password are specified in clear text. Even though, users can't access web.config file, it is still not safe because the server admins can still see the userid and password from web.config files. For example, in shared hosting environments. So, it will be better if we encrypt the connection string in web.config file in these scenarios.
Understanding this need, Microsoft introduced a new technique to encrypt and decrypt the Web.Config sections in Asp.Net 2.0.
ASP.Net 2.0 has 2 providers for encrypting and decrypting config sections, RSA(RSAProtectedConfigurationProvider) and DPAPI(DataProtectionConfigurationProvider)
To encrypt a connection string section,
protected void btnEncrypt_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Configuration config = WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration(Request.ApplicationPath);
ConfigurationSection section = config.GetSection("connectionStrings");
if (!section.SectionInformation.IsProtected)
{
section.SectionInformation.ProtectSection("DataProtectionConfigurationProvider");
config.Save();
}
}
To use RSA algorithm, use RSAProtectedConfigurationProvider in the place of DataProtectionConfigurationProvider in the above code snippet.
This is how the connection string section will look like once encrypted,
<connectionStrings configProtectionProvider="DataProtectionConfigurationProvider">
<EncryptedData>
<CipherData>

</CipherData>
</EncryptedData>
</connectionStrings>
The connection string can be still accessed in code by regular ways,
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["Sql"].ConnectionString);
To see back the original connection string we need to decrypt it.
To decrypt a connection string section,
protected void btnDecrypt_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Configuration config = WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration(Request.ApplicationPath);
ConfigurationSection section = config.GetSection("connectionStrings");
if (section.SectionInformation.IsProtected)
{
section.SectionInformation.UnprotectSection();
config.Save();
}
}
