Hi all,

I have read a few of the threads on encryption and just wanted to get some updated suggestions.

I only need to encrypt a few fields within the entire application - do not need a rewrite of the entire app into SQL server etc. The customer just has a few "sensitive" fields that they would like encrypted.

I have read about Craig Boyd's vfpencryption71.fll and it seems to wrap to all the current encryption standards (correct me if I am wrong) but his blog stops in 2010 so not sure if there are any newly found bugs in this dll that might not be fixed. I have also looked at Rick Strahl's class (which I have) which wraps .net functions and encrypts with TripleDES - in this case, not sure yet if this is secure enough (no guidance from the customer and I just don't know enough about encryption to make the reccommendation).

Are there any other classes etc out there that provide the AES256 encryption mechanisms?

Again, just want to replace the contents of a few fields with an encrypted value.

Thanks,
Albert
