Protection Property
Specifies a password protection level.
Syntax
pgpwriter.getProtection([callback]) pgpwriter.setProtection( protection, [callback])
Possible Values
0 (pptNone), 1 (pptLow), 2 (pptNormal), 3 (pptHigh)
Default Value
0
Callback
The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).
The callback for the getProtection([callback]) method is defined as:
function(err, data){ }
'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.
'data' is the value returned by the method.
The callback for the setProtection([callback]) method is defined as:
function(err){ }
'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.
'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:
err.code err.message
Remarks
This property specifies the complexity of key derivation function for password-protected documents.
Allowed values:
pptNone | 0 | Key is not encrypted |
pptLow | 1 | Only the password hash is used to derive the secret key |
pptNormal | 2 | Password hash with salt is used to derive the secret key |
pptHigh | 3 | Hash from multiple passwords and salt are used for key derivation |
