Java vs. .NET security comparisons. It deals with the issues of cryptography support and the mechanisms of communication protection on those platforms the means of secure data and code storage and distribution rely on using cryptographic schemes, such a
Tutorial Details:
Once an application steps out of the bounds of a single-computer box, its external communication is immediately exposed to a multitude of outside observers with various intentions, their interests ranging from employers scanning the list of web sites an employee visits to business spies looking for a company\'s \"know-how.\" In order to protect sensitive data while it is en route, applications invoke different methods, most often with some kind of cryptographic protection applied to the data before transmitting it. Any respectable enterprise system has to demonstrate adequate protection measures in this area.
Cryptography in .NET is based to a large extent on the Windows CryptoAPI (CAPI) service, with some extensions. Many algorithms are implemented as managed wrappers on top of CAPI, and the key management system is based on CAPI key containers. Most cryptography-related classes reside in the System.Security.Cryptography namespace, with certificate classes separated into X509Certificates and XML digital signature functionality into Xml subpackages. Web Service Extensions (WSE; see Secure Communication section) provides its own set of certificate classes in the Microsoft.Web.Services.Security.X509 package.
