QuestionWhere to put the password? Pin
Nader Elshehabi8-Dec-06 18:10

Hello guys.
I'm stuck in one of the silliest problems anyone would ever imagine. Alright, my application is a password protected database application. I know!! I've already put the passwords of my application, and the database in an external file -not the main config. I got my reasons though-. Now I want to encrypt that external file to protect my passwords, and not to hardcode them in my program.

The funny thing is that I need a key, wich has to be the same in the Encrypting/Decrypting process. I don't want to hardcode that key -I know it's not the best practice-. Also I don't want to use the File.Encrypt() method, as it's easily broken -using the Decrypt ethod BTW-, and assumes that the user has NTFS.

I figured out an inconvenient way of maing the user's password, or my Assembly's GUID as that key.This is my last resort, but I'd really like to hear fresh ideas, as I'm out of!!

PS.
Currently I'm reading MSDN security section. Can you imagine how desperate I am now?
