Windows Desktop Watermark with username

-

 Hi Guys,

I recently had a requirement from a client to implement a way to protect sensitive documents from being photographed from mobile devices and shared online. To mitigate this issue I made a windows application using C#. 

When the exe runs it will read current logged in users' domain user account and display his username throughout the screen.

I have given options to change the displayed text to username, hostname of the computer or any custom texts.

You can get this application from the following url

Note: This is works only in Windows Operating Systems

WCF Service and TLS 1.2

-
Hi All, I worked on a WCF Service (.NET 3.5) which consumed an external web service and was working fine. Until recently it started giving the following error. An error occurred while making the HTTP request to {url}.This could be due to the fact that the server certificate is not configured properly with HTTP.SYS in the HTTPS case.This could also be caused by a mismatch of the security binding between the client and the server. This made a big issue as the WCF was already being consumed by number of other systems. Later we got to know the external web service was upgraded to use TLS 1.2 and the .NET 3.5 doesn't support TLS 1.2 (.NET 4.5 or greater supports TLS 1.2). So I had to change the version of the .NET version to 4.5 and add the following code to enforce it to use TLS 1.2. And everything started to work the way they used to. 1) .NET 4.6 and above. You don’t need to do any additional work to support TLS 1.2, it’s supported by default. 2) .NET 4.5. TLS 1.2 is sup

 Hi Guys, Recently I had a requirement to create a JWT token based WebApi server and a WebApi Client to consume it using .NET Core. So first I created two .NET Core Web Api projects as shown below. In the appsettings.json file of both the WebApi Server and the Client. I added the following values. "JwtConfig": { "Key": "dsadsagfaqrergsdsfdffdsfdsffdsfdsfdsfdsfdfdsfsfdsfd", //Some Secure Key longer the better "AudienceId": 7895, //Some Secure Audience Id "HostUrl": "https://somesecureurl.com" //Some Host Url } Now we will first look at implementation of the WebApi Server. 1) First we must create code to Generate the JWT token, this can be achieved by creating JWTTokenManager.cs file and adding following code public interface IJwtTokenManager { string Authenticate(string userName, string password); } public class JwtTokenManager : IJwtTokenManager { private readonly IConfiguration _c

  Hi Guys, With the immense hype created by ChatGPT every technology is adopting ways to integrate ChatGPT to their frameworks. Hence, a brilliant team led by Hassan Habib  has managed to give .NET Developers a way to call ChatGPT programmatically and get the responses. Remember this is still a new project you might encounter some issues, but the Standard.AI.OpenAI team is ready to help us developers in this journey. The source code can be found here. 1) First you must register yourself at https://platform.openai.com 2) Then you must generate an API Key as shown below. 3) Now you can start integrating your .NET Core applications to use openai. For this purpose I use a console application (.NET 7).  4) Install the Nuget package Standard.AI.OpenAI 5) Copy paste the below code using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc; using Standard.AI.OpenAI.Brokers.DateTimes; using Standard.AI.OpenAI.Clients.OpenAIs; using Standard.AI.OpenAI.Models.Configurations; using Standard.AI.OpenAI.Models.Services.Foundati
