Encryption using sha in asp.net

Task: Encryption using SHA with encryptionkey in asp.net and c#..

Description: Encryption using SHA in asp.net and c#. Using below code we can generate message digest. In Web technology we need to save password of user, for this we can use this one. It is one way encryption, we can't decrypt it back.

using System.Security.Cryptography;

public string shaEncrption(string plainText, string encryptionkey)

{

    try

    {

        string key = encryptionkey;

        byte[] plainTextBytes = ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes(plainText);

        // Allocate array, which will hold plain text and salt.

        byte[] plainTextWithkeyBytes = null;

        byte[] keyBytes;

        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(key))

        {

            // Convert salt text into a byte array.

            keyBytes = ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes(key);

            plainTextWithkeyBytes =

                new byte[plainTextBytes.Length + keyBytes.Length];

        }

        else

        {

            // Define min and max salt sizes.

            int minkeySize = 4;

            int maxkeySize = 8;

            // Generate a random number for the size of the key.

            Random random = new Random();

            int keySize = random.Next(minkeySize, maxkeySize);

            // Allocate a byte array, which will hold the key.

            keyBytes = new byte[keySize];

            // Initialize a random number generator.

            RNGCryptoServiceProvider rngCryptoServiceProvider =

                        new RNGCryptoServiceProvider();

            // Fill the key with cryptographically strong byte values.

            rngCryptoServiceProvider.GetNonZeroBytes(keyBytes);

        }

        // Copy plain text bytes into resulting array.

        for (int i = 0; i < plainTextBytes.Length; i++)

        {

            plainTextWithkeyBytes[i] = plainTextBytes[i];

        }

        // Append salt bytes to the resulting array.

        for (int i = 0; i < keyBytes.Length; i++)

        {

            plainTextWithkeyBytes[plainTextBytes.Length + i] =

                                keyBytes[i];

        }

        // SHA256 hash = new SHA256CryptoServiceProvider();

        SHA384 hash = new SHA384CryptoServiceProvider();

        // SHA512 hash = new SHA512CryptoServiceProvider();

        byte[] hashBytes = hash.ComputeHash(plainTextWithkeyBytes);

        // Create array which will hold hash and original key bytes.

        byte[] hashWithkeyBytes =

            new byte[hashBytes.Length + keyBytes.Length];

        // Copy hash bytes into resulting array.

        for (int i = 0; i < hashBytes.Length; i++)

        {

            hashWithkeyBytes[i] = hashBytes[i];

        }

        // Append salt bytes to the result.

        for (int i = 0; i < keyBytes.Length; i++)

        {

            hashWithkeyBytes[hashBytes.Length + i] = keyBytes[i];

        }

        // Convert result into a base64-encoded string.

        string hashValue = Convert.ToBase64String(hashWithkeyBytes);

        return hashValue;

    }

    catch (Exception ex)

    {

        return null;

Post JSON data with Authorization header using asp.net and c#

Task: Post JSON data with Authorization header using asp.net and c#.

Description: Post JSON data with Authorization header using asp.net and c#. There is two methods for posting form, Get and Post. Here I used Post method with Basic Authorization header for submitting the form. 

using System.Net;

using System.IO;

using System.Web.Script.Serialization;

public class ProductResponse

{

    public string submitstatus { get; set; }

    public string reference { get; set; }

}

public void ProductSubmit( )

{

    try

    {

        string baseurl = "https://hemantrautela.blogspot.com/productsubmit";

        string Authkey = "ba1f3a6e97ceed3358c9b8a54d2a8f56efexy78d";

        string postString = @"{'productid': '7',

                          'quantity': '1',

                          'total_amount': 700.00,

                          'curruncy': 'INR',

                          'clientIpAddress': '" + Request.UserHostAddress + @"',

                          'clientUserAgent': '" + Request.UserAgent + @"' }";

        HttpWebRequest webReq = WebRequest.Create(baseurl) as HttpWebRequest;

        webReq.Method = "POST";

        webReq.ContentType = "application/json; charset=utf-8";

        webReq.ContentLength = postString.Length;

        webReq.Accept = "application/json";

        webReq.Headers.Add("API-Version", "4.1.0");

        byte[] authBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes((Authkey).ToCharArray());

        webReq.Headers.Add("Authorization", "Basic " + Convert.ToBase64String(authBytes));

        StreamWriter requestWriter = new StreamWriter(webReq.GetRequestStream());

        requestWriter.Write(postString);

        requestWriter.Close();

        StreamReader responseReader = new StreamReader(webReq.GetResponse().GetResponseStream());

        string responseData = responseReader.ReadToEnd();

        ProductResponse productresp = new JavaScriptSerializer().Deserialize<ProductResponse>(responseData);

        List<ProductResponse> resp_obj = new List<ProductResponse>();

        resp_obj.Add(productresp);

        string referencevalue = productresp.reference;

        string submitstatus = productresp.submitstatus;

        responseReader.Close();

        webReq.GetResponse().Close();

    }

    catch (Exception ex)

    {

    }
