- algorithm
- String
The cryptographic algorithm.
Returns
true when the specified algorithm is DsaSha1Signature, RsaSha1Signature, RsaSha256Signature, RsaOaepKeyWrap, or RsaV15KeyWrap; otherwise, false.
Remarks
Due to collision problems with SHA1, Microsoft recommends a security model based on SHA256 or better.
