Determines whether the specified key is weak.

public:
 static bool IsWeakKey(cli::array <System::Byte> ^ rgbKey);
public static bool IsWeakKey (byte[] rgbKey);
static member IsWeakKey : byte[] -> bool
Public Shared Function IsWeakKey (rgbKey As Byte()) As Boolean

Parameters

rgbKey
Byte[]

The secret key to test for weakness.

Returns

Boolean

true if the key is weak; otherwise, false.

Exceptions

CryptographicException

The size of the rgbKey parameter is not valid.

Remarks

Weak keys are keys that result in ciphers that are easy to break. If text is encrypted with a weak key, encrypting the resulting cipher again with the same weak key returns the original text. There are four known weak keys for the Data Encryption Standard (DES) algorithm; this method checks for those weak keys.

Attempting to set a weak key results in a CryptographicException. When GenerateKey is called to create a random key, a weak key will never be returned.
