SyntaxMembers| Member name | Value | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Unknown | 0 | The algorithm type is not defined. | |
| Cipher | 1 | The algorithm is used for symmetric encryption. This includes the RC2, RC4, Data Encryption Standard (DES), 3DES, and AES algorithms. | |
| Hash | 2 | The algorithm is used for hashing. This includes the MD2, MD4, SHA1, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512 MAC, and Hash-Based Message Authentication Code (HMAC) hash algorithms. | |
| AsymmetricEncryption | 3 | The algorithm is used for public key encryption. This includes RSA. | |
| SecretAgreement | 4 | The algorithm is used for key exchange. This includes the Diffie-Hellman algorithm and ECDH algorithm. | |
| Signature | 5 | The algorithm is used for signing. This includes the RSA algorithm, Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA), and ECDSA algorithm. | |
| RandomNumberGenerator | 6 | The algorithm is used to generate a random number. |
