DLL for native encryption and compression (using Crypto++). Includes RSA Key Generator in C#, and encryption and compression in ASP.NET (C#).
// arc4.cpp - written and placed in the public domain by Wei Dai

// The ARC4 algorithm was first revealed in an anonymous email to the
// cypherpunks mailing list. This file originally contained some
// code copied from this email. The code has since been rewritten in order
// to clarify the copyright status of this file. It should now be
// completely in the public domain.
