There are many ways to encrypt strings in .NET, most of them residing in the
System.Security.Cryptography namespace.

Here's a good starting point:

Not sure what you mean by ".net references". Strings cannot be encrypted
but rather you convert the strings to byte arrays and encrypt the bytes.

How much information are you looking for because you should be able to find
lots of tutorials on encryption by searching google.

You can also take a look at the System.Security.Cryptography namespace.
