You can look at the ProtectedData Class and the ProtectedMemory Class in the
System.Security.Cryptography Namespace

Mmm...

If the aim of this is to store encrypted a password in your database, the
best way of doing this is just storing a hash of the password, then when the
user enters the password you pass the hash and you compare the hashed filed
in the database.

By using this approach nobody will be able to steal you the passwords by
accessing your database.
