The Diffie Hellman .NET component allows two parties that have no prior knowledge of each other to jointly establish a shared secret key over an insecure communications channel. This key can then be used to encrypt subsequent communications using a symmetric key cipher.

DH .NET Component Features

Diffie-Hellman key exchange (D-H) is a cryptographic protocol that allows two parties that have no prior knowledge of each other to jointly establish a shared secret key over an insecure communications channel. This key can then be used to encrypt subsequent communications using a symmetric key cipher.

Synonyms of Diffie-Hellman key exchange include:

• Diffie-Hellman key agreement
• Diffie-Hellman key establishment
• Diffie-Hellman key negotiation
• Exponential key exchange

Component Features:

• Simple 2-step Method for Computing a Shared Secret
• Safe prime generation. Generate new P and G values.
• Ability to use Known Primes from RFC 2409 and RFC 3526 (Oakley and MODP groups)
