Encryption is essential for protecting data, with both symmetric and asymmetric methods offering unique advantages.

Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a widely adopted and symmetric encryption algorithm standard used while securing data.

This article will examine how we can work with two types of encryption in C#, symmetric encryption and asymmetric encryption. Symmetric encryption uses one key for both encryption and decryption.

Symmetric-key encryption is what people usually think of as encryption. It allows data and messages to be scrambled using a “key” so they are indecipherable to anyone without the key.

ASC X9 has released a new standard, X9.24-3, that allows the use of the AES DUKPT algorithm to enhance security in retail financial transactions.
