Master C# RSA Encryption & Decryption in Visual Studio 2022 🔐

In this tutorial, we delve into the fascinating world of cryptography by implementing private/public key encryption and decryption in C# using Visual Studio 2022. The tutorial is designed to be beginner-friendly, guiding you step-by-step through the process of securing data using the RSA algorithm.

We start by setting up a new Console App project in Visual Studio 2022, ensuring you have a clean slate to work with. The first step involves adding the necessary namespaces, specifically `System`, `System.Security.Cryptography`, and `System.Text`, which are crucial for handling encryption and decryption operations.

Next, we generate a pair of RSA keys - a public key and a private key. The public key is used for encrypting data, while the private key is used for decrypting it. This key pair is essential for ensuring that only authorized parties can access the encrypted data.

We then move on to encrypting a sample message. Using the public key, we convert the message into an encrypted format that is unreadable to anyone without the corresponding private key. This step demonstrates how data can be securely transmitted over potentially insecure channels.

Finally, we decrypt the encrypted message using the private key. This step is crucial as it shows how the original message can be retrieved from its encrypted form, ensuring that the data remains confidential and intact.

Throughout the tutorial, we emphasize the importance of each step, providing clear and concise code examples to illustrate the concepts. By the end of this tutorial, you will have a solid understanding of how to implement private/public key encryption and decryption in C#, equipping you with the knowledge to secure your data effectively. Happy coding!
