What are the encryption methods available in ASP.NET Core?

ASP.NET Core provides several encryption methods, including Data Protection API, AES, and RSA. Would you like to know more about a specific method?

Can you explain how the Data Protection API works?

The Data Protection API in ASP.NET Core is designed to protect data by providing encryption and decryption services. It uses a key management system to securely store and manage keys.

How do I implement AES encryption in my ASP.NET Core application?

To implement AES encryption, you can use the Aes class from the System.Security.Cryptography namespace. You'll need to set up a key and an initialization vector (IV) for encryption and decryption.

Are there any best practices for using encryption in ASP.NET Core?

Yes, some best practices include using strong keys, regularly rotating keys, and ensuring that sensitive data is encrypted both at rest and in transit.
