RSAParameters RSAParams = RSA.ExportParameters(false); //Create another RSACryptoServiceProvider object. RSACryptoServiceProvider RSA2 = new RSACryptoServiceProvider(); //Import the the key information from the other //RSACryptoServiceProvider object. RSA2.ImportParameters(RSAParams); } catch(CryptographicException e) { //Catch this exception in case the encryption did //not succeed. Console.WriteLine(e.Message); }
