# CryptoExtensions.NET - Useful Cryptography Extensions

A collection of four extensions using the current best practices for strong hashing and encryption.

[![MSBuild](https://github.com/jscarle/CryptoExtensions.NET/actions/workflows/msbuild.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/jscarle/CryptoExtensions.NET/actions/workflows/msbuild.yml)

## QuickStart

Be sure to first add the using statement

```csharp

using System.Security.Cryptography;

```

### Encrypting text

```csharp

var plainText = "Some text to encrypt";

var encryptedText = plainText.Encrypt("encryptionPassword");

```

### Decrypting text

```csharp

var encryptedText = "U29tZSB0ZXh0IHRvIGRlY3J5cHQ=";

var plainText = encryptedText.Decrypt("encryptionPassword");

```

### Hashing a password

```csharp

var password = "Some password to hash";

var passwordHash = password.Hash();

```

### Comparing a password hash

```csharp

var storedPasswordHash = "U29tZSBvdGhlciBwYXNzd29yZCBoYXNo";

var password = "Some password to compare";

var isValidPassword = password.CompareToHash(storedPasswordHash);

```
