Pregunta
I am trying to find out the internals of login control in asp.net. Does it uses some Public key encryption algorithm to exchange a key and then uses it for further communication as a symmetric key.
Also do we have our say in choosing the encryption algorithms like for ex i want to specifically use Diffie Hellman with login control. Is it possible and how can i achieve this?

- The Login controls use ASP.Net Membership along with Forms Authentication by default.
- You can create your own auth mechanism
- The default hash algorithm used in ASP.net Membership is SHA1. Yes, you have a choice. I've had to use MD5 in a migration project (if memory serves from phpBB to ASP.net) more than a few years back...
