Base-64 Encoding/Decoding
Base-64 is often used to convert from a binary format, with non-printable characters, into a format which uses readable ASCII characters. In this example we will use the standard methods of Convert.ToBase64String() and Convert.FromBase64String() to change to and from Base-64. First Create a New Web Site, then Add a New Item to this, and select a Web Form. Using this ASP.NET Web form, create the page shown in Figure 1, with three text boxes, and one button (you do not need the rest of the page, just these three elements). The Text boxes should be named message, tbEncode, and tbDecode64. Next associate the following code to the button Click event:

A.2.

A.3.

string message; message = this.message.Text; this.tbEncode.Text = base64Encode(message); this.tbDecode64.Text = base64Decode(this.tbEncode.Text);

A.4.

Finally, add two methods of:

public string base64Decode(string data) { // Based on: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=287324 try { System.Text.UTF8Encoding encoder = new System.Text.UTF8Encoding(); System.Text.Decoder utf8Decode = encoder.GetDecoder(); byte[] todecode_byte = Convert.FromBase64String(data); int charCount = utf8Decode.GetCharCount(todecode_byte, 0, todecode_byte.Length); char[] decoded_char = new char[charCount]; utf8Decode.GetChars(todecode_byte, 0, todecode_byte.Length, decoded_char, 0); string result = new String(decoded_char); return result; } catch (Exception e) { throw new Exception("Error in base64Decode" + e.Message);

Now complete the following table (the first one has been completed for you).

Next implement the page given in (where the code is given at the bottom of the page): http://buchananweb.co.uk/security14.aspx

A.7.

Now complete the following table (the first one has been completed for you). The words should be common words, and should complete a message: String Base-64 UmVtZW1iZXIgdG8= ZGVmaW5lIHlvdXIgQVNQWA== aW4gYSBmb3JtYXQgd2hpY2ggY2FuIGJl aW50ZXJwcmV0ZWQgYnkgSUlTLg==

Private-key encryption
Implement the following pages, and add the code which performs the encryption and decryption:

3DES http://buchananweb.co.uk/security07.aspx AES http://buchananweb.co.uk/security15.aspx The following message was created with the key of hello with AES. Can you modify the Web pages so that you can decrypt it: A1135FD83E128D2BEF34F0AD45D0A0E2364D65B96C535B226BCAB4DE88BA AC2B

C

Hashing Methods
Implement the following page, and add the code which performs the hashing functions:

MD5 http://buchananweb.co.uk/security03.aspx Next complete Table 2. Table 2: String Hello Napier Anthill Forest Forest

MD5 5D41402ABC4B2A76B9719D911017C592

Check these against a tool on the Web, and determine if they match.

D

Public-key encryption
Implement the following page, and add the code which creates a public and private key:

RSA http://buchananweb.co.uk/security18.aspx Add more prime numbers to the code, and check that it still works.

E
E.1.

Diffie-Hellman
Implement the following page, and add the code which performs a calculation for Diffie-Hellman, and prove for a number of examples that the same secret key can be created: 4
