Assemblies
  • Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection

Syntax

public sealed class ManagedAuthenticatedEncryptionSettings : IInternalAuthenticatedEncryptionSettings
class Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection.AuthenticatedEncryption.ManagedAuthenticatedEncryptionSettings

Properties

Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection.AuthenticatedEncryption.ManagedAuthenticatedEncryptionSettings.EncryptionAlgorithmKeySize

The length (in bits) of the key that will be used for symmetric encryption. This property is required to have a value.

Return type:System.Int32 
public int EncryptionAlgorithmKeySize { get; set; }
Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection.AuthenticatedEncryption.ManagedAuthenticatedEncryptionSettings.EncryptionAlgorithmType

The type of the algorithm to use for symmetric encryption. The type must subclass System.Security.Cryptography.SymmetricAlgorithm. This property is required to have a value.

Return type:System.Type 
public Type EncryptionAlgorithmType { get; set; }
Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection.AuthenticatedEncryption.ManagedAuthenticatedEncryptionSettings.ValidationAlgorithmType

The type of the algorithm to use for validation. Type type must subclass System.Security.Cryptography.KeyedHashAlgorithm. This property is required to have a value.

Return type:System.Type 
public Type ValidationAlgorithmType { get; set; }

Methods

Validate()

Validates that this Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection.AuthenticatedEncryption.ManagedAuthenticatedEncryptionSettings is well-formed, i.e., that the specified algorithms actually exist and can be instantiated properly. An exception will be thrown if validation fails.
