The AzureKeys component makes it easy to interact with keys in Azure Key Vaults.

Syntax

TckAzureKeys

Remarks

The AzureKeys component provides an easy-to-use interface for the key-related functionality of the Azure Key Vault service. Azure Key Vault allows you to works with a few different kinds of resources, one of which is asymmetric key pairs. This component helps you to create, manage, and use said key pairs (or just "keys", for short) for cryptographic operations. To work with "secrets" instead, refer to the AzureSecrets component.

To begin, register for an Azure account and create one or more Key Vaults via the Azure Portal. Set the Vault property to the name of the vault you wish to work with.

This component requires authentication via OAuth 2.0. First, perform OAuth authentication using the OAuth property to set the appropriate fields for the chosen OAuthClientProfile and OAuthGrantType.

The component has the following defaults:

Additionaly, depending on how the application is registered (Ex. Single-tenant, Multi-tenant) and what OAuthGrantType is selected (Ex. Authorization Code, Password), it may be required to use the tenant ID rather than "common" in the OAuthServerAuthURL, and OAuthServerTokenURL properties. See below for examples of the modified URLs:

Application Profile

This profile encompasses the most basic grant types that OAuth supports. When this profile is set, all the requests and response handling is done by the component. Depending on the grant type, this may involve launching a browser so a user can login to authenticate with a authorization server. It may also involve starting an embedded web server to receive a response from a redirect.

To start the authentication and authorization process, the Authorize method should be called. If the authorization and authentication was successful, then the OAuthAccessToken property will be populated. Additionally, if a refresh token was provided the OAuthRefreshToken property will be populated as well. These values of the fields are for informational purposes. The component will also cache these tokens along with when the OAuthAccessToken will be expired. When a method that makes requests to the service provider is called or the Authorize method is called the component will automatically check to see if the access token is expired. If it is, it will then automatically try to get a new OAuthAccessToken. If the Authorize method was not used and user interaction would be required, the component will throw an error which can be caught. When user interaction is needed depends on what grant type is set in the OAuthGrantType property. To force the component to only check the access token when the Authorize method is called, the OAuthAutomaticRefresh configuration setting can be set to false.

A brief description of the supported values for the OAuthGrantType property are below. For more information, see the service documentation.

Authorization Code

When using the Authorization Code grant type, the component will use an authorization code to get an access token. For this OAuthGrantType the component expects a OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, OAuthServerAuthURL, and OAuthServerTokenURL to be set. When the Authorize method is called, the component will start the embedded web server and launch the browser so the user can authorize the application. Once the user authorizes, the service provider will redirect them to the embedded web server and the component will parse the authorization code, setting the OAuthAuthorizationCode property, from the redirect. Immediately, the component will make a request to the token server to exchange the authorization code for an access token. The token server will return an access token and possibly a refresh token. If the OAuthRefreshToken property is set, or a refresh token is cached, then the component will not launch the browser and use the refresh token in its request to the token server instead of an authorization code.

Example: AzureKeys azurekeys = new AzureKeys(); azurekeys.OAuth.ClientProfile = CloudOAuthClientProfiles.cocpApplication; azurekeys.OAuth.GrantType = OAuthSettingsGrantTypes.cogtAuthorizationCode; azurekeys.OAuth.ClientId = CLIENT_ID; azurekeys.OAuth.ClientSecret = SECRET_ID; azurekeys.OAuth.AuthorizationScope = "offline_access https://vault.azure.net/user_impersonation"; azurekeys.OAuth.ServerAuthURL = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/" + TENANT_ID + "/oauth2/v2.0/authorize"; azurekeys.OAuth.ServerTokenURL = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/" + TENANT_ID + "/oauth2/v2.0/token"; azurekeys.Authorize(); Implicit

Note: This grant type is considered insecure and should only be used when necessary.

When using the Implicit grant type, the component will request the authorization server to get an access token. For this OAuthGrantType the component expects a OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, and OAuthServerAuthURL to be set. When the Authorize method is called, the component will start the embedded web server and launch the browser so the user can authorize the application. Once the user authorizes, the service provider will redirect them to the embedded web server and the component will parse the access token from the redirect.

A disadvantage of the grant type is that can not use a refresh token to silently get a new access token. Most service providers offer a way to silently get a new access token. See the service documentation for specifics. This means the component will not be able to automatically get a fresh token once it expires.

Password

Note: This grant type is considered insecure and should only be used when necessary.

When using the Resource Owner Password Credentials grant type, the component will authenticate as the resource owner. This allows for the component to avoid user interaction. This grant type often has specific limitations put on it by the service provider. See the service documentation for more details.

For this OAuthGrantType the component requires OAuthPasswordGrantUsername, OAuthClientSecret, and OAuthServerTokenURL to be set. The OAuthClientSecret should be set to the password of the account instead of a typical secret. In some cases, the OAuthClientId also needs to be set. When the Authorize method is called, the component will make a request to the token server for an access token using the username and password. The token server will return an access token if the authentication was successful. When this access token is expired, the component will automatically (see above for detailed description) make a new request to get a fresh one.

Web Profile

External OAuth Support

Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN_VALUE

Assign this value to the Authorization property before attempting any operations. Setting the Authorization property will cause the component to ignore the values set in the OAuth property.

For Example: Oauth oauth = new Oauth(); oauth.ClientId = "CLIENT_ID"; oauth.ClientSecret = "CLIENT_SECRET"; oauth.ServerAuthURL = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/authorize"; oauth.ServerTokenURL = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/token"; oauth.AuthorizationScope = "offline_access https://vault.azure.net/user_impersonation"; oauth.GrantType = OauthGrantTypes.ogtAuthorizationCode; azurekeys.Authorization = oauth.GetAuthorization(); Consult the documentation for the service for more information about supported scope values and more details on OAuth authentication.

Using the Component

Keys can be created using the CreateKey method. A key's name and type (i.e., whether it is RSA or EC, and its size or curve, respectively) must be set at the time of creation, and cannot be changed later. A list of cryptographic operations that the key is valid for must also be set, but can be changed at any time using the UpdateKey. If a key with the specified name already exists, a new version of it is created; this makes it easy to "rotate" a key.

When a key will no longer be used, it can be deleted using the DeleteKey method. However, the key will only be soft-deleted; by default, Azure will permanently delete it after the waiting period configured for the vault. During this waiting period, the soft-deleted key may be recovered using RecoverKey, or permanently deleted using PurgeKey (assuming the currently-authenticated user has the permissions to do so). azurekeys.CreateKey("mykey", "RSA_2048", "encrypt,decrypt,sign,verify,wrapKey,unwrapKey"); // ... Some time later, when the key is no longer needed ... azurekeys.DeleteKey("mykey"); // At this point, the key is only soft-deleted. It could be recovered... azurekeys.RecoverKey("mykey"); // ...or permanently deleted. azurekeys.PurgeKey("mykey");

To list keys, use the ListKeys method. This method is also used to list soft-deleted keys if the GetDeleted configuration setting has been enabled first. To list a key's versions, use the ListVersions method. (You cannot list a deleted key's versions.) In all cases, the IncludeKeyDetails property can optionally be enabled to have the component attempt to retrieve the full information for each key (Azure leaves out certain fields by default when listing). // If there are many keys to list, there may be multiple pages of results. This will // cause all pages of results to be accumulated into the Keys collection property. do { azurekeys.ListKeys(); } while (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(azurekeys.KeyMarker)); // A similar thing applies to key versions as well. do { azurekeys.ListVersions("mykey"); } while (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(azurekeys.VersionMarker));

Depending on a key's "key ops" list, it can be used to perform different cryptographic operations. Keys with the encrypt and decrypt ops can be used in Encrypt and Decrypt operations. Keys with the sign and verify ops can be used in Sign and Verify. Finally, keys with the wrapKey and unwrapKey ops can be used in WrapKey and UnwrapKey operations (which are just like encryption and decryption, but which are intended to be used for wrapping a symmetric key, and which require different permissions to call successfully).

To perform a cryptographic operation, use InputData or InputFile to supply the input data that should be processed. All operations will output the result data to OutputData or OutputFile (except Verify; refer to its documentation for more information). azurekeys.CreateKey("mykey", "RSA_2048", "encrypt,decrypt"); azurekeys.InputData = "Test123"; azurekeys.OutputFile = "C:/temp/enc.dat"; azurekeys.Encrypt("mykey", "RSA-OAEP-256"); azurekeys.InputFile = "C:/temp/enc.dat"; azurekeys.OutputFile = ""; // So that the data will be output to the OutputData property. azurekeys.Decrypt("mykey", "RSA-OAEP-256");

The component also supports a variety of other functionality, including:

• Retrieval of a single key's information (including public key) with GetKeyInfo.
• Enabling and disabling keys with SetKeyEnabled.
• Tagging support using AddTag and the Tags properties.
• Secure key backup and restoration using BackupKey and RestoreKey.
• And more!

__property DynamicArray<Byte> SSLServerCertEncodedB = { read=FSSLServerCertEncodedB };

Default Value

""

Remarks

The certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The SSLServerCertStore and SSLServerCertSubject properties also may be used to specify a certificate.

When SSLServerCertEncoded is set, a search is initiated in the current SSLServerCertStore for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, SSLServerCertSubject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, SSLServerCertSubject is set to an empty string.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Byte Array

TagCount Property (AzureKeys Component)

The number of records in the Tag arrays.

Syntax

__property int TagCount = { read=FTagCount, write=FSetTagCount };

Timeout Property (AzureKeys Component)

The timeout for the component.

Syntax

__property int Timeout = { read=FTimeout, write=FSetTimeout };

Default Value

60

Remarks

If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.

If Timeout is set to a positive value, the component will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.

The component will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not freeze and remains responsive.

If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the component raises an exception.

Note: By default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, that is, the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the Timeout property is 60 seconds.

Config Method (AzureKeys Component)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

String __fastcall Config(String ConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every component. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the component.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

CreateKey Method (AzureKeys Component)

Creates a new key.

Syntax

String __fastcall CreateKey(String KeyName, String KeyType, String KeyOps);

Remarks

This method creates a new key with the given KeyName and KeyType. If a key with the specified KeyName already exists, a new version of it is created. The version Id of the newly-created key is returned.

The value passed for KeyName must consist solely of alphanumeric characters and hyphens (-).

The KeyType parameter specifies the type of key that should be created. Each key type has two variants, a software-based one and an HSM-based one. Possible values are shown in the first two columns of the following table:

The KeyOps parameter specifies which operations the key will be valid for use with. Possible values are as follows; at least one pair of operations must be specified:

• encrypt

If there are any items in the Tags properties, they will be applied to the newly-created key. Keys may have up to 15 tags.

The following configuration settings can also be used to send additional values when creating the key, refer to their documentation for more information:

• CreateKeyEnabled
• ExpiryDate
• NotBeforeDate

Note: If there is already a soft-deleted key with the specified KeyName in the currently-selected Vault, then a new key cannot be created with the same name. To resolve such a situation, the soft-deleted key would need to be recovered (using RecoverKey) or permanently deleted (using PurgeKey) first.

Decrypt Method (AzureKeys Component)

Decrypts data using a key.

Syntax

void __fastcall Decrypt(String KeyName, String Algorithm);

Remarks

This method decrypts 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 decrypt is taken from the the specified InputFile or the InputData property. The decrypted 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.

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:

GetKeyInfo Method (AzureKeys Component)

Gets a key's information and public key.

Syntax

void __fastcall GetKeyInfo(String KeyName);

Remarks

This method gets the information, including the public key, for the key specified by KeyName. The VersionId configuration setting can be used to target a specific key version. Alternatively, the GetDeleted configuration setting can be enabled to get a soft-deleted key's information (but only for the last version).

When the information is returned, the component clears the Keys properties and repopulates it properties with the key's tags. The KeyList event is also fired.

ListKeys Method (AzureKeys Component)

Lists keys in the currently-selected vault.

Syntax

void __fastcall ListKeys();

Remarks

This method lists the keys in the currently-selected Vault. If the GetDeleted configuration setting is enabled, it lists the soft-deleted keys in the vault instead.

Calling this method will fire the KeyList event once for each key, and will also populate the Keys properties. However, note that by default the following properties will not be populated, since the server does not return full information for keys when listing them. The IncludeKeyDetails property can be enabled to have the component attempt to retrieve full information for each key; refer to its documentation for more information.

• KeyOps
• KeyType
• KeyPublicKey
• KeyVersionId

If there are still more keys available to list when this method returns, the KeyMarker property will be populated. Continue to call this method until KeyMarker is empty to accumulate all pages of results in the Keys properties.
