Properties

EncryptionAlgorithm	The name of the algorithm to use for symmetric encryption. This property corresponds to the 'pszAlgId' parameter of BCryptOpenAlgorithmProvider. This property is required to have a value.
EncryptionAlgorithmKeySize	The length (in bits) of the key that will be used for symmetric encryption. This property is required to have a value.
EncryptionAlgorithmProvider	The name of the provider which contains the implementation of the symmetric encryption algorithm. This property corresponds to the 'pszImplementation' parameter of BCryptOpenAlgorithmProvider. This property is optional.

Methods

Validate()

Validates that this CngGcmAuthenticatedEncryptionSettings is well-formed, i.e., that the specified algorithm actually exists and can be instantiated properly. An exception will be thrown if validation fails.
