System.Security.Cryptograph ...


.NET Framework Class Library
AsymmetricKeyExchangeFormatter Class

Represents the base class from which all asymmetric key exchange formatters derive.

Namespace:  System.Security.Cryptography
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)
<ComVisibleAttribute(True)> _
Public MustInherit Class AsymmetricKeyExchangeFormatter
Visual Basic (Usage)
Dim instance As AsymmetricKeyExchangeFormatter
C#
[ComVisibleAttribute(true)]
public abstract class AsymmetricKeyExchangeFormatter
Visual C++
[ComVisibleAttribute(true)]
public ref class AsymmetricKeyExchangeFormatter abstract
JScript
public abstract class AsymmetricKeyExchangeFormatter
Remarks

Asymmetric key exchange formatters encrypt key exchange data.

Key exchange allows a sender to create secret information, such as random data that can be used as a key in a symmetric encryption algorithm, and use encryption to send it to the intended recipient.

Caution noteCaution:

It is highly recommended that you not attempt to create your own key exchange method from the basic functionality provided, because many details of the operation must be performed carefully in order for the key exchange to be successful.
