I have access to the membership database but the profile property values are stored in some cryptic binary format.
Is there any way to decrypt, alter and save these using only SQL or do I need to implement a user management system using .net?
As far as I know, using the membership API is your only option. And this makes sense: if the membership database was easy to hack, it’d be easily hacked by anybody with the necessary database access. Such a person shouldn’t necessarily have that power within a company.
