Remarks

The common language runtime uses a stream-oriented design for cryptography. The core of this design is CryptoStream. Any cryptographic objects that implement CryptoStream can be chained together with any objects that implement Stream, so the streamed output from one object can be fed into the input of another object. The intermediate result (the output from the first object) does not need to be stored separately.

Important

In .NET 6 and later versions, when Stream.Read or Stream.ReadAsync is called with a buffer of length N, the operation completes when either at least 1 byte has been read from the stream, or the underlying stream that it wraps returns 0 from a call to Read, indicating no more data is available. Prior to .NET 6, Stream.Read and Stream.ReadAsync did not return until all N bytes had been read from the stream or the underlying stream returned 0 from a call to Read. If your code assumes the Read methods won't return until all N bytes have been read, it could fail to read all the content. For more information, see Partial and zero-byte reads in streams.

You should always explicitly close your CryptoStream object after you're finished using it by calling the Clear method. Doing so flushes the underlying stream and causes all remaining blocks of data to be processed by the CryptoStream object. However, if an exception occurs before you call the Close method, the CryptoStream object might not be closed. To ensure that the Close method always gets called, place your call to the Clear method within the finally block of a try/catch statement.

This type implements the IDisposable interface. When you've finished using the type, you should dispose of it either directly or indirectly by calling its Clear method, which in turn calls its IDisposable implementation. To dispose of the type directly, call its Clear method in a try/catch block. To dispose of it indirectly, use a language construct such as using (in C#) or Using (in Visual Basic).
