Fields

None 0

No usage values are assigned to the key.
Decryption 1

The key can be used for encryption and decryption.
Signing 2

The key can be used for signing and verification.
KeyAgreement 4

The key can be used for secret agreement generation and key exchange.
AllUsages 16777215

The key can be used for all purposes.

Remarks

Not all operations apply to each key. For example, an Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) key cannot be used for decryption even if the Decryption usage is set.
