Gli algoritmi crittografici asimmetrici, noti anche come algoritmi di chiave pubblica, richiedono che sia il mittente che il ricevitore mantengano una coppia di chiavi correlate: una chiave privata e una chiave pubblica. Entrambe le chiavi sono univoche per l'entità. La chiave pubblica può essere resa disponibile a chiunque; questa chiave viene usata per la codifica dei dati inviati a un ricevitore. La chiave privata deve essere mantenuta privata dal ricevitore; questa chiave viene usata per decodificare i messaggi codificati usando la chiave pubblica del ricevitore. La RSACryptoServiceProvider classe è un'implementazione di un algoritmo a chiave pubblica. Per una discussione approfondita sulla crittografia e sugli algoritmi di chiave pubblica, vedere la sezione "Crittografia chiave pubblica" in Servizi di crittografia. Per informazioni su come usare lo strumento Nome sicuro (Sn.exe) per creare coppie chiave, vedere Procedura: Creare una coppia di chiavi Public-Private.

È possibile usare sistemi a chiave pubblica per formare firme digitali. Le firme digitali vengono usate per proteggere l'integrità dei dati. Ad esempio, per usare un sistema a chiave pubblica per firmare digitalmente un messaggio, il mittente applica prima una funzione hash al messaggio per creare un digest di messaggi. Il mittente crittografa quindi il digest del messaggio con la chiave privata del mittente per creare la firma personale del mittente. Dopo aver ricevuto il messaggio e la firma, il ricevitore decrittografa la firma usando la chiave pubblica del mittente per recuperare il digest del messaggio e esegue l'hash usando lo stesso algoritmo hash usato dal mittente. Se il digest del messaggio calcolato dal ricevitore corrisponde al digest del messaggio ricevuto dal mittente, il destinatario può presumere che il messaggio non sia stato modificato durante il transito. Si noti che chiunque può verificare una firma, perché la chiave pubblica del mittente è conoscenza comune. Questa tecnica non mantiene la segretezza del messaggio; affinché il messaggio sia segreto, deve essere crittografato anche.

.NET Framework fornisce le classi seguenti che implementano algoritmi di firma digitale: DSACryptoServiceProvider, , ECDsaRSACryptoServiceProvider(classe base) e ECDsaCng.

Lo System.Security.Cryptography spazio dei nomi fornisce classi concrete solo per RSA e DSA solo.
