Provides extension methods for the
String class, enhancing string manipulation
and processing capabilities. These methods include numerical encoding and decoding of strings,
allowing for efficient storage, obfuscation, and transmission of text data in numeric form.
Namespace:
System.Text
Assembly:
Walter.Cypher (in Walter.Cypher.dll)
The
StringExtensions class is part of the
[System.Text] namespace and offers
specialized methods such as
TryAsNumeric and
FromNumeric for handling both short
and long text blocks. These methods are particularly useful for scenarios where text needs to be
stored in a compact numeric format, whether for obfuscation purposes, to improve database indexing
efficiency, or to facilitate data transfer over systems that prefer numeric data.
While these methods provide a layer of text obfuscation and can help optimize storage and retrieval
operations, they are not intended as replacements for secure encryption algorithms for protecting
sensitive information. Developers should use these extensions as part of a broader data handling
and security strategy.
