SSL and C#

Question

User-1410783915 posted

I want to use SSL, mainly to protect the application users username and password. So here is my question. Suppose the application user enters their username and password into their web browser, and then they press the "Log In" button. So here is my question. Once the password is passed back to the Login method in C# (The method that the password is sent into). at that point if I am using SSL will the password be encrypted when it is passed into the C# code? If so, how do I unencrypt the password? Or does SSL decrypt the password, once it passes it into the C# method/code?

That has nothing to do with SSL encryption or the question.

The web browser and server perform encryption over the wire. You get everything in the same state as it was entered by the user. It's the communication between the browser and the server that is encrypted.
