Publisher's Descriptions
The Mentalis.org Security Tools library was designed to be an add-on for the .NET framework. Its goal is to provide some useful cryptographic tools that do not yet exist for the .NET 2.0 Framework.
Strong Name Files: Strong Name files (or SNK files) can be created and used by Microsoft's sn.exe tool. However, sometimes it's useful to create these files manually from code, or to use the keys in these files in your code. Using the StrongNameFile class, you can do these things! You can initialize instances of this class using your own RSA parameters, and then save them to SNK files where they can be used to sign code for instance. Or you can open an existing SNK file, and initialize a new RSACryptoServiceProvider instance with the public/private key pair contained in the SNK file.
Private Key Files: Apart from Strong Name files, Private Key files (also called PVK files) can also be opened by this library. The PrivateKeyFile class can open a PVK file and associate it with the corresponding X509 certificate that you have. This way, the X509Certificate instance can be used to encrypt/verify and decrypt/sign data.
RSA Exponent-of-one Keys: Exponent-of-one keys are special RSA keys, in the sense that the output buffer matches the input buffer for any RSA encryption or decryption. Practically, this means that if you generate a key-exchange message using an RSAPKCS1KeyExchangeFormatter instance that was initialized with such a special key, the resulting key exchange buffer will include the secret key unencrypted. Exponent-of-one keys are very useful when you're in the debugging stage of your application. You can use these keys instead of 'normal' RSA keys, and the entire system keeps working as expected. The only difference is that the 'encrypted' data is the same as the unencrypted data - a very useful feature for debugging purposes.
Self-signed certificates: When you need to create X509 certificates at runtime, you can use the new X509CertificateGenerator that creates self-signed certificates with the parameters that you specify. You can set the public/private key, the subject name, the validity period and add certificate extensions. The library returns an X509Certificate instance that can then be used or saved to disk.
