Why integer occupying 16 bytes instead of 4 bytes?

[Sandeep Kalra]

Hi There I am using encryption and decryption using RijandaelManaged algorithm. When I write integer in plain form .It is occupying 4 bytes. When I use encryption It is occupying 16 bytes. Can anybody tell me why? Your response will be apperciated Thanks

Encryption makes it "bigger". If it didn't, it would be relative easy to crack. A text that gets encrypted usually isn't the same size as the encrypted version.
