virtual property int KeySize { int get(); void set(int value); };
public override int KeySize { get; set; }

The size, in bits, of the key.
- Attributes
For AES, the legal key sizes are 128, 192, and 256 bits.
Changing the KeySize
value resets the key and generates a new random key. This happens whenever the KeySize
property setter is invoked (including when it's assigned the same value).
