RSA Encrypt and Decrypt Credit Card Numbers

See more RSA Examples

_LANGUAGE_ sample code to RSA public-key encrypt and decrypt credit card numbers. The RSA key is loaded from an unencrypted PKCS8 file. Chilkat provides many ways of setting the key -- loading from both encrypted and unencrypted PEM, PKCS8, DER, PVK, etc. Keys may be loaded from files or in-memory representations. (The RSA component also provides the ability to generate RSA keys.)

' Important: RSA encryption should only be used to encrypt small amounts of data.
' It is typically used for encrypting symmetric encryption
' keys such that a symmetric encryption algorithm, such as 
' AES is then used to encrypt/decrypt bulk data
