Secure Authentication Using a C# Implementation of the Zero Knowledge Proof by Walter Shcoellmann

Description

The proliferation of far--flung distributed processing calls for enterprise architects to be familiar with the various methods of authentication. Zero knowledge proofs that use a cryptographic hash are lightweight alternatives to authentication methods that use public key cryptography. The .NET Framework makes an implementation of a zero knowledge protocol easy. In this article, author Walter Schoellmann takes a look at the Zero Knowledge Proof and walks you through the creation of an application to help you apply the concepts in real--world scenarios.
