System.Security.Cryptography.AesManaged Class

Provides a managed implementation of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) symmetric algorithm.

See Also: AesManaged Members

Syntax

public sealed class AesManaged : Aes

Remarks

The AES algorithm is essentially the Rijndael symmetric algorithm with a fixed block size and iteration count. This class functions the same way as the System.Security.Cryptography.RijndaelManaged class but limits blocks to 128 bits and does not allow feedback modes.

Note:

If the Windows security policy setting for Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS)-compliant algorithms is enabled, using this algorithm throws a System.Security.Cryptography.CryptographicException.
