Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type String. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Remarks

If no key name is specified, value is assumed to not be encoded and is returned as is.

It is recommended to use this method at the last possible moment, e.g., in stack variables, to avoid storing decrypted data in memory for longer periods of time.
