(AutoIt) RSA Signature using Private Key from .snk File

See more RSA Examples

A .snk file (Strong Name Key file) is a file format used in the .NET ecosystem to store an RSA public/private key pair. This key pair is typically used for strong-naming assemblies, which is a process of signing .NET assemblies to ensure their integrity and to uniquely identify them.

This example loads a private key from a .snk file and creates an RSA signature.
