Encrypt Method
Encrypts data using a key.
Syntax
azurekeyscontrol.Encrypt KeyName, Algorithm
Remarks
This method encrypts data using the key specified by KeyName and the given Algorithm. The VersionId configuration setting can be used to target a specific key version.
The data to encrypt is taken from the the specified InputFile or the InputData property. The encrypted data is output to the the specified OutputFile or the OutputData property.
The key specified by KeyName must be an RSA key; EC keys cannot be used for encryption/decryption.
The Algorithm parameter specifies which algorithm to use to encrypt the data. The type of key and the selected algorithm together dictate the maximum size of the input data. Refer to the following table for possible values and maximum data sizes:
Algorithm | Description | RSA_2048 | RSA_3072 | RSA_4096 |
RSA1_5 | RSAES-PKCS1-v1_5 | 245 | 373 | 509 |
RSA-OAEP | RSAES OAEP using SHA-1 and MGF1 with SHA-1 | 214 | 342 | 470 |
RSA-OAEP-256 | RSAES OAEP using SHA-256 and MGF1 with SHA-256 | 190 | 318 | 446 |
