public static class CryptographyThe implementation of the encryption and decryption methods is not guaranteed to remain the same between version releases of the IDEA™ framework. Consequently, a future implementation may break a previous implementation and result in all of your encrypted data being lost. It's important, therefore, to use strict version controls if you have existing encrypted data.
This implementation has not changed since InnerDrive.Framework assembly version 0.98.2278.21712, 28 March 2006. Data encrypted with previous versions of the assembly are not guaranteed to be compatible. Data encrypted with all subsequent versions is compatible.
The implementation previously changed with version 0.98.1152.0 in February 2003.
