Examples

The following example shows how to implement a custom ProtectedConfigurationProvider.

To be able to configure this provider, as shown in the next configuration excerpt, you must install it in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC). For more information, see Implementing a Protected Configuration Provider.

Remarks

You can encrypt sections of a configuration file to protect sensitive information used by your application. This improves security by making it difficult for unauthorized access even if an attacker gains access to your configuration file.

.NET includes two protected configuration providers that can be used to encrypt sections of a configuration file. The RsaProtectedConfigurationProvider class uses the RSACryptoServiceProvider to encrypt configuration sections. The DpapiProtectedConfigurationProvider class uses the Windows Data Protection API (DPAPI) to encrypt configuration sections.

You might have a requirement to encrypt sensitive information using an algorithm other than the RSA or DPAPI providers. In this case, you can build your own custom protected-configuration provider. The ProtectedConfigurationProvider is an abstract base class that you must inherit from to create your own protected-configuration provider.

Whether you use a standard or a custom provider, you must ensure that it is configured with the add element in the providers section of the configProtectedData configuration section. (See next example.)

For details, see Implementing a Protected Configuration Provider.

Note

When ASP.NET encounters encrypted configuration data, it performs decryption transparently using the configured provider. No action is required on your side other than making sure that you configure the required provider.
