OpenPGP Configuration
The task accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the task, access to these internal properties is provided through the Other property.OpenPGP Configuration Settings
| AllowOldPacketType:
Whether to allow the older encrypted packet type.By default the task will only encrypt data using the newer and more secure integrity protected data packet type.
Old implementations such as PGP 6.5.8 may require the older less secure data packet type.
When set to True the task will read the features from the recipient key to determine if the older packet type is required. If the key does require the old packet type, then the older packet type will be used. If the key does not require the old packet type, then the new integrity protected packet type will still be used. By default this value is False. This means under no conditions is the older less secure packet type used. The newer integrity protected packet type is always used. Only enable this setting if you have a requirement to do so. | |||||||||
| Filename:
The original name of the file to encrypt.When encrypting, this configuration setting can be used to specify the original filename of the data to encrypt. If specified, this value is included in the encrypted packet.
This setting is only available in the Encoder. | |||||||||
| ForceV3Signature:
Whether to use v3 signatures.This setting is used to force v3 signatures for compatibility with older PGP implementations (versions 5 through 7).
The default value is False. This setting is only available in the Encoder. | |||||||||
KeySelectionMethod:
The method used to select a key for encryption or signing.When more than one key is present this task can be configured to automatically select a key based on certain criteria (described below) or allow for manual selection.
Manual Selection To manually select a key for any operation pass the key's Id in the UserId property. | |||||||||
| LogDebugData: Whether to include debug information in the log.This setting may be set to True to include detailed debug information in the log. The log mode should also be set to Verbose when using this setting. This may be helpful for troubleshooting purposes. The default value is False. | |||||||||
| PublicKeyringFile: The name of the public keyring file.This setting may be used to specify an alternative public keyring file. By default the task will look for the file "pubring.gpg" in the homedir. Specify this setting to provide an alternative filename. This may be set to a filename without path such as "pubring.pkr" in which case the task will search for this file in the homedir. This may also be set to a full path such as "C:\keyring\pubring.pkr". | |||||||||
RecursiveDecryptMode:
Whether the encrypted data should be decrypted recursively.In some instances data will be encrypted multiple times. This configuration option determines how the task
will handle this situation. Options are:
| |||||||||
| RequireEncryption: Whether an error should be thrown if the message is not encrypted.This setting only affects the decoder. By default, unencrypted messages will not cause an error to be thrown. To change this and only allow encrypted messages, set this option to true. | |||||||||
| RequireSignature: Whether an error should be thrown if the message is not signed.This setting only affects the decoder. By default, unsigned messages will not cause an error to be thrown. To change this and only allow encrypted messages, set this option to true. | |||||||||
| SecretKeyringFile: The name of the secret keyring file.This setting may be used to specify an alternative secret keyring file. By default the task will look for the file "secring.gpg" in the homedir. Specify this setting to provide an alternative filename. This may be set to a filename without path such as "secring.skr" in which case the task will search for this file in the homedir. This may also be set to a full path such as "C:\keyring\secring.skr". | |||||||||
| SymmetricPassphrase: The password used for symmetric encryption or decryption.This setting specifies the passphrase when using symmetric encryption. If a value is provided, symmetric encryption/decryption will be attempted. In this case no keys are used for either encryption or decryption. Only Encrypt and Decrypt are valid operations when a value is set. Sign, SignAndEncrypt, VerifySignature, and DecryptAndVerifySignature are not valid operations when using this option. |
