Public Property HashAlgorithm As CngAlgorithm
Property Value
An object that specifies the hash algorithm.
Exceptions
The value is null
.
Remarks
This property is used by Cryptography Next Generation (CNG) objects only if the Hash or Hmac value is set in the KeyDerivationFunction property.
This property accepts the following algorithms: MD5, Sha1, Sha256, Sha384, and Sha512.
Other custom hash algorithms may also be used.
Due to collision problems with MD5 and SHA1, Microsoft recommends Sha256. The default algorithm is Sha256.
