PDFVerifier Component

Properties Methods Events Configuration Settings Errors

The PDFVerifier component verifies signatures over PDF documents.

Syntax

nsoftware.SecureBlackbox.Pdfverifier

Remarks

Use PDFVerifier to validate electronic signatures over PDF documents. Generic and PAdES signatures are supported.

PDFVerifier validates each signature from two perspectives: the integrity and validity of the signature itself (i.e. its correspondence to the document data it covers), and the validity and trustworthiness of the signing certificate chain. These two signature aspects are generally independent of each other: the signature may be valid but the chain may not be trusted, or, the other way round, the chain may be trusted, but the integrity of the signature may be violated. Under normal circumstances both the signature and the chain must be valid for the signature to be considered good.

To initiate the validation, assign the path to the signed PDF file to the InputFile property (alternatively, you can provide it in a memory buffer via InputBytes property), and call Verify method. For every signature located in the document, PDFVerifier will fire the SignatureFound event. This event lets you specify whether you want PDFVerifier to validate the signature, the chain, or both.

Note: it does not mean that any of the two is optional. This API lets you be flexible in how you validate documents in your code in accordance with the specifics of your application and its usage scenarios. For example, if your trust environment relies on certificate pinning, validating the chain by PDFVerifier internally may cause unnecessary burden on the system, in which case it may be reasonable to disable it in the event handler.

Once SignatureFound returns, PDFVerifier proceeds to the signature validation routine in accordance with the provided settings. Upon completion of the validation, SignatureValidated event is fired, and the validation results are separately provided via SignatureValidationResult and ChainValidationResult properties. Other information about the signature can be accessed via the Signature property.

PDF format uses incremental updates to introduce changes to the document. This implies that a signature may cover not the whole document but, rather, a certain revision of it. Strictly speaking, every signature in a PDF document apart from, perhaps, the last one covers just some part of the document. In most cases that part matches the revision of the document that existed before all the subsequent signatures had been added.

Because of this specifics of PDF format it is crucially important to understand what part of the document is covered by a specific signature. Use the CoverageEndsAt to establish the scope of a signature. The revision of the document covered by that specific signature ranges from byte 0 to CoverageEndsAt. Alternatively, you can use the GetSignedVersion method to extract the signed revision to a file.

Useful settings and properties

The following properties of PDFVerifier may be handy when working with this component:

OfflineMode lets you validate the document without contacting online revocation sources. Paired with switched off system trust settings, it can be used to establish the long-term validity of the document and the completeness of validation material included in it.
RevocationCheck lets you adjust the revocation checking preferences.
ValidatedSigningTime returns the signing time as recorded in the embedded signature timestamp. This is in contrast to ClaimedSigningTime, which returns the signing time as specified by the signer.
ValidationLog is a great way to find out the details of chain validation failures. This property returns a comprehensive validation log that reports all the issues encountered during the validation.
If the document is encrypted (in addition to being signed), DecryptionInfoNeeded event will fire, asking you for the decryption certificate or password.

By default, PDFVerifier uses the system trust settings to establish certificate chain validity. You can configure it to use your own, custom validation environment by providing the necessary trust elements via KnownCertificates, TrustedCertificates, KnownCRLs, and other similar properties.

VB.NET

public CertificateList KnownCertificates { get; }

Public Property KnownCertificates As CertificateList

Remarks

Use this property to supply a list of additional certificates that might be needed for chain validation. An example of a scenario where you might want to do that is when intermediary CA certificates are absent from the standard system locations (or when there are no standard system locations), and therefore should be supplied to the component manually.

The purpose of certificates to be added to this collection is roughly equivalent to that of Intermediate Certification Authorities system store in Windows.

Do not add trust anchors or root certificates to this collection: add them to TrustedCertificates instead.

This property is not available at design time.

sqsSuspended	`17`	Deprecated. The subject service's status is temporarily uncertain whilst checks are made by the scheme operator (typically e.g. while a revocation request is being investigated or if action is required to resolve a deficiency in the service fulfilling the scheme's criteria.
sqsRevoked	`18`	Deprecated. The subject service's approved status has been revoked because it is no longer in accordance with the scheme's specific status determination criteria (only for use in positive approval schemes).
sqsNotInAccordance	`19`	Deprecated. The subject service is not in accordance with the scheme's specific status determination criteria (only for use in negative approval schemes).

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

RevocationCheck Property (PDFVerifier Component)

Specifies the kind(s) of revocation check to perform.

Syntax

C#
VB.NET

public PdfverifierRevocationChecks RevocationCheck { get; set; }

enum PdfverifierRevocationChecks {
  crcNone,
  crcAuto,
  crcAllCRL,
  crcAllOCSP,
  crcAllCRLAndOCSP,
  crcAnyCRL,
  crcAnyOCSP,
  crcAnyCRLOrOCSP,
  crcAnyOCSPOrCRL
}

Public Property RevocationCheck As PdfverifierRevocationChecks

Enum PdfverifierRevocationChecks
  crcNone
  crcAuto
  crcAllCRL
  crcAllOCSP
  crcAllCRLAndOCSP
  crcAnyCRL
  crcAnyOCSP
  crcAnyCRLOrOCSP
  crcAnyOCSPOrCRL
End Enum

Default Value

Remarks

Revocation checking is necessary to ensure the integrity of the chain and obtain up-to-date certificate validity and trustworthiness information.

Certificate Revocation Lists (CRL) and Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) responses serve the same purpose of ensuring that the certificate had not been revoked by the Certificate Authority (CA) at the time of use. Depending on your circumstances and security policy requirements, you may want to use either one or both of the revocation information source types.


crcNone (`0`)	No revocation checking
crcAuto (`1`)	Automatic mode selection. Currently this maps to crcAnyOCSPOrCRL, but it may change in the future.
crcAllCRL (`2`)	Check all provided CRL endpoints for all chain certificates.
crcAllOCSP (`3`)	Check all provided OCSP endpoints for all chain certificates.
crcAllCRLAndOCSP (`4`)	Check all CRL and OCSP endpoints for all chain certificates.
crcAnyCRL (`5`)	At least one CRL check for every certificate in the chain must succeed.
crcAnyOCSP (`6`)	At least one OCSP check for every certificate in the chain must succeed.
crcAnyCRLOrOCSP (`7`)	At least one CRL or OCSP check for every certificate in the chain must succeed. CRL endpoints are checked first.
crcAnyOCSPOrCRL (`8`)	At least one CRL or OCSP check for every certificate in the chain must succeed. OCSP endpoints are checked first.

This setting controls the way the revocation checks are performed. Typically certificates come with two types of revocation information sources: CRL (certificate revocation lists) and OCSP responders. CRLs are static objects periodically published by the CA at some online location. OCSP responders are active online services maintained by the CA that can provide up-to-date information on certificate statuses in near real time.

There are some conceptual differences between the two. CRLs are normally larger in size. Their use involves some latency because there is normally some delay between the time when a certificate was revoked and the time the subsequent CRL mentioning that is published. The benefits of CRL is that the same object can provide statuses for all certificates issued by a particular CA, and that the whole technology is much simpler than OCSP (and thus is supported by more CAs).

This setting lets you adjust the validation course by including or excluding certain types of revocation sources from the validation process. The crcAnyOCSPOrCRL setting (give preference to faster OCSP route and only demand one source to succeed) is a good choice for most of typical validation environments. The "crcAll*" modes are much stricter, and may be used in scenarios where bulletproof validity information is essential.

Remarks

Use this property to supply a list of trusted certificates that might be needed for chain validation. An example of a scenario where you might want to do that is when root CA certificates are absent from the standard system locations (or when there are no standard system locations), and therefore should be supplied to the component manually.

The purpose of this certificate collection is largely the same than that of Windows Trusted Root Certification Authorities system store.

Use this property with extreme care as it directly affects chain verifiability; a wrong certificate added to the trusted list may result in bad chains being accepted, and forfeited signatures being recognized as genuine. Only add certificates that originate from the parties that you know and trust.

This property is not available at design time.

The validity of the same signature may differ depending on the time point chosen due to temporal changes in chain validities, revocation statuses, and timestamp times.

Config Method (PDFVerifier Component)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

C#
VB.NET

public string Config(string configurationString);

Public Function Config(ByVal ConfigurationString As String) As String

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.

DoAction Method (PDFVerifier Component)

Performs an additional action.

Syntax

C#
VB.NET

public string DoAction(string actionID, string actionParams);

Public Function DoAction(ByVal ActionID As String, ByVal ActionParams As String) As String

Remarks

DoAction is a generic method available in every component. It is used to perform an additional action introduced after the product major release. The list of actions is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.

The unique identifier of the action is provided in ActionID parameter. ActionParams contains a list of parameters for the action in the form of PARAM1=VALUE1;PARAM2=VALUE2;....

GetSignedVersion Method (PDFVerifier Component)

Returns the part of the document that is covered by the signature.

Syntax

C#
VB.NET

public void GetSignedVersion(int sigIndex, string filename);

Public Sub GetSignedVersion(ByVal SigIndex As Integer, ByVal Filename As String)

Remarks

Use this method to retrieve the revision of the document that is covered by the SigIndex signature.

PDF documents often use incremental updates approach, with any changes being appended to the document without altering the existing revision. This may lead to situations where a signature only covers a part of the document (one of the past revisions), but not the subsequent changes. GetSignedVersion method provides means to extract the revision that is actually certified by the signature.

It is recommended that you use this method when validating signatures to make sure the signature covers what you expect it to cover.

An alternative to this method is to check the CoverageEndsAt field of the signature object and match it to the document length.

Verify Method (PDFVerifier Component)

Verifies a signed PDF document.

Syntax

C#
VB.NET

public void Verify();

Public Sub Verify()

Remarks

Use this method to validate all signatures in a PDF document.

This method walks through a signed document and reports every signature via a SignatureFound event. Subscribe to the event to be notified about the signatures and adjust validation settings on the fly.

Upon completion of this method the signature details will be published in Signatures property.

This method only validates the signatures, but does not check their coverage. It is a good idea to use mechanisms such as GetSignedVersion or CoverageEndsAt to ensure that the signature covers the expected document revision.

Public Event OnSignatureValidated As OnSignatureValidatedHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnSignatureValidatedHandler(sender As Object, e As PdfverifierSignatureValidatedEventArgs)

Public Class PdfverifierSignatureValidatedEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property IssuerRDN As String

  Public ReadOnly Property SerialNumber As Byte()

  Public ReadOnly Property SubjectKeyID As Byte()

  Public ReadOnly Property ValidationResult As Integer

End Class

Remarks

This event is fired upon the completion of the signature validation routine, and reports the respective validation result.

Use the IssuerRDN, SerialNumber, and/or SubjectKeyID parameters to identify the signing certificate.

ValidationResult is set to 0 if the validation has been successful, or to a non-zero value in case of a validation failure.


svtValid	`0`	The signature is valid
svtUnknown	`1`	Signature validity is unknown
svtCorrupted	`2`	The signature is corrupted
svtSignerNotFound	`3`	Failed to acquire the signing certificate. The signature cannot be validated.
svtFailure	`4`	General failure

TimestampFound Event (PDFVerifier Component)

Signifies the start of a timestamp validation routine.

Syntax

C#
VB.NET

public event OnTimestampFoundHandler OnTimestampFound;

public delegate void OnTimestampFoundHandler(object sender, PdfverifierTimestampFoundEventArgs e);

public class PdfverifierTimestampFoundEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public string IssuerRDN { get; }

  public byte[] SerialNumber { get; }

  public byte[] SubjectKeyID { get; }

  public bool CertFound { get; }

  public bool ValidateTimestamp { get; set; }

  public bool ValidateChain { get; set; }

}

Public Event OnTimestampFound As OnTimestampFoundHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnTimestampFoundHandler(sender As Object, e As PdfverifierTimestampFoundEventArgs)

Public Class PdfverifierTimestampFoundEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property IssuerRDN As String

  Public ReadOnly Property SerialNumber As Byte()

  Public ReadOnly Property SubjectKeyID As Byte()

  Public ReadOnly Property CertFound As Boolean

  Public Property ValidateTimestamp As Boolean

  Public Property ValidateChain As Boolean

End Class

Remarks

This event fires for every timestamp identified during signature processing, and reports the details about the signer's certificate via its IssuerRDN, SerialNumber, and SubjectKeyID parameters.

Just like with signature validation, timestamp validation consists of two independent stages: cryptographic signature validation and chain validation. Separate validation results are reported for each, with SignatureValidationResult and ChainValidationResult properties respectively.

Use the ValidateSignature and ValidateChain parameters to tell the verifier which stages to include in the validation.

TimestampValidated Event (PDFVerifier Component)

Reports the completion of the timestamp validation routine.

Syntax

C#
VB.NET

public event OnTimestampValidatedHandler OnTimestampValidated;

public delegate void OnTimestampValidatedHandler(object sender, PdfverifierTimestampValidatedEventArgs e);

public class PdfverifierTimestampValidatedEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public string IssuerRDN { get; }

  public byte[] SerialNumber { get; }

  public byte[] SubjectKeyID { get; }

  public string Time { get; }

  public int ValidationResult { get; }

  public int ChainValidationResult { get; }

  public int ChainValidationDetails { get; }

}

Public Event OnTimestampValidated As OnTimestampValidatedHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnTimestampValidatedHandler(sender As Object, e As PdfverifierTimestampValidatedEventArgs)

Public Class PdfverifierTimestampValidatedEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property IssuerRDN As String

  Public ReadOnly Property SerialNumber As Byte()

  Public ReadOnly Property SubjectKeyID As Byte()

  Public ReadOnly Property Time As String

  Public ReadOnly Property ValidationResult As Integer

  Public ReadOnly Property ChainValidationResult As Integer

  Public ReadOnly Property ChainValidationDetails As Integer

End Class

Remarks

This event is fired upon the completion of the timestamp validation routine, and reports the respective validation result.

ValidationResult is set to 0 if the validation has been successful, or to a non-zero value in case of a failure.


svtValid	`0`	The signature is valid
svtUnknown	`1`	Signature validity is unknown
svtCorrupted	`2`	The signature is corrupted
svtSignerNotFound	`3`	Failed to acquire the signing certificate. The signature cannot be validated.
svtFailure	`4`	General failure

TLSCertValidate Event (PDFVerifier Component)

This event is fired upon receipt of the TLS server's certificate, allowing the user to control its acceptance.

Syntax

C#
VB.NET

public event OnTLSCertValidateHandler OnTLSCertValidate;

public delegate void OnTLSCertValidateHandler(object sender, PdfverifierTLSCertValidateEventArgs e);

public class PdfverifierTLSCertValidateEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public string ServerHostname { get; }

  public string ServerIP { get; }

  public bool Accept { get; set; }

}

Public Event OnTLSCertValidate As OnTLSCertValidateHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnTLSCertValidateHandler(sender As Object, e As PdfverifierTLSCertValidateEventArgs)

Public Class PdfverifierTLSCertValidateEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property ServerHostname As String

  Public ReadOnly Property ServerIP As String

  Public Property Accept As Boolean

End Class

Remarks

This event is fired during a TLS handshake. Use TLSServerChain property to access the certificate chain. In general case, components may contact a number of TLS endpoints during their work, depending on their configuration.

Accept is assigned in accordance with the outcome of the internal validation check performed by the component, and can be adjusted if needed.

ValidationProgress Event (PDFVerifier Component)

TBD

Remarks

This type provides access to X.509 certificate details.

Fields

Bytes
Byte()

Returns raw certificate data in DER format.

CA
Boolean

Indicates whether the certificate has a CA capability (a setting in BasicConstraints extension).

CAKeyID
Byte()

A unique identifier (fingerprint) of the CA certificate's private key.

Authority Key Identifier is a (non-critical) X.509 certificate extension which allows the identification of certificates produced by the same issuer, but with different public keys.

The default position is aligned with the top right corner of the page. Switch this property off and use OffsetX and OffsetY to put the widget elsewhere on the page.

AutoSize
Boolean

Use the default widget size.

Switch this property off and use Height and Width properties to use a different size.

AutoStretchBackground
Boolean

Stretches the background picture to fit the signature widget.

AutoText

The default texts are based on the information contained in the signing certificate. Set this property to false and use AlgorithmInfo, SignerInfo, and Header properties to generate customized descriptions.

BackgroundData
Byte()

Contains/takes the data of the signature widget background bitmap.

Assign the widget background data (in form of JPEG or JPEG2000 bytes) to this property.

BackgroundHeight
Integer

The height of the background image in pixels.

It is important that this property matches the exact size of the image when custom background is used.

BackgroundImageType
PDFWidgetImageTypes

The type of the image contained in BackgroundData. JPEG and JPEG2000 format are currently supported.


pwitJPEG2000	`0`	JPEG 2000 format (supports transparency)
pwitJPEG	`1`	standard JPEG format (does not support transparency)
pwitCustom	`2`	Custom background format

BackgroundMask
Byte()

Contains the background image mask.

Masks provide means for marking transparent areas on your signature widgets. Specifically, a transparency mask tells PDF viewing apps which pixels of the signature widget should be kept visible and which should be rendered transparent instead.

In most cases, you will need a unique mask that is tailored for your signature widget image. This is something that you will need to create yourself basing on your preferences and the actual image design.

A mask is effectively a matrix of bits, with each bit corresponding to a pixel on your background bitmap. A bit is set to 1 if the corresponding pixel needs to be made transparent, or to 0 if it needs to be opaque.

To create the mask that can be passed to BackgroundMask, please follow the below procedure:

Go through the bitmap of your signature widget bitmap row to row, processing each row of pixels from left to right. For each row,

1. Start with an empty bit string.

2. For every pixel in a row, add '1' bit if you want it to be transparent, or '0' bit if you want it to be opaque.

3. Upon reaching the end of the row, append '0' bits to your bit string until the number of bits in it is a multiple of 8. This is because each row of pixels needs to be represented with a whole number of bytes.

4. Convert the bit string to a byte array by grouping every 8 bits into a byte.

Do the same for every row of pixels, and then concatenate the received byte arrays together. Pass the created byte array to SetSigBackgroundMask().

A small example. Imagine your image is 19 pixels wide and 3 pixels tall. Imagine you want to make it 'semi-transparent' by using a 'mesh' pattern. The mask will therefore look like this:

10101010 10101010 10100000 // first row

01010101 01010101 01000000 // second row

10101010 10101010 10100000 // third row

Note that the last 5 bits of each row are padding '0' bits and are ignored: you only need them to make each row contain a whole number of bytes. When converted to a byte string, this would look like

0xAA 0xAA 0xA0

0x55 0x55 0x40

0xAA 0xAA 0xA0

, or, if written as a byte array, (0xAA, 0xAA, 0xA0, 0x55, 0x55, 0x40, 0xAA, 0xAA, 0xA0): this is what you need to pass to SetSigBackgroundMask().

BackgroundStyle
PDFWidgetBackgroundStyles

The style of the signature widget background.

pwbsDefault uses the default image, pwbsNoBackground doesn't use background image at all, and pwbsCustom expects the application to provide a custom background image.


pwbsDefault	`0`	The default widget background
pwbsNoBackground	`1`	No (empty) background
pwbsCustom	`2`	Custom background (picture or vector)

BackgroundWidth
Integer

The width of the background image in pixels.

It is important that this property matches the exact size of the image when custom background is used.

It is a good idea to avoid using the visual status icon, as described below:

According to the Digital Signature Appearances Adobe Acrobat SDK (May 2015), "Prior to Acrobat 6.0, signature appearances were manipulated at run-time in order to display the validity of the signature. The validity was shown as a graphic icon and with an additional, optional text message. The manipulated portions of the signature appearance were contained in layers n1, n3 and n4. Beginning with version 6, Acrobat does not maintain support for signature appearances that can be manipulated, though legacy signatures with these appearances may continue to display correctly. Use of layers n1, n3, and n4 is not recommended."

Configuration Settings (PDFVerifier Component)

The component 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 component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

	EmptySignatureFieldRequiredDigestAlgorithms[Index]: Specifies the required digest algorithms. This property contains the list of the digest algorithms used for signature generation.
	EmptySignatureFieldRequiredFilter[Index]: Specifies the required filter. This property contains the required filter (name of the preferred signature handler) to use for signature generation.
	EmptySignatureFieldRequiredLockAction[Index]: Indicates which set of fields shall be locked. This property contains a set of form fields that shall be locked when the current signature field is signed.
	EmptySignatureFieldRequiredLockFields[Index]: Indicates the fields that shall be locked on signing.

	ForceCompleteChainValidationForTrusted: Whether to continue with the full validation up to the root CA certificate for mid-level trust anchors. Set this property to True to enable full chain validation for explicitly trusted intermediary or end-entity certificates. This may be useful when creating signatures to enforce completeness of the collected revocation information. It often makes sense to set this property to false when validating signatures to reduce validation time and avoid issues with badly configured environments.
	GracePeriod: Specifies a grace period to apply during revocation information checks. Use this property to specify a grace period (in seconds). Grace period applies to certain subprotocols, such as OCSP, and caters to the inaccuracy and/or missynchronization of clocks on different participating systems.

You would normally need to set this property when validating severely non-compliant chains that misuse the extension, causing chain loops or other validation issues.
	IgnoreSystemTrust: Whether trusted Windows Certificate Stores should be treated as trusted. Specifies whether, during chain validation, the component should respect the trust to CA certificates as configured in the operating system. In Windows this effectively defines whether the component should trust the certificates residing in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store. If IgnoreSystemTrust is True, certificates residing in the trusted root store are treated as if they are known, rather than trusted. Only certificates provided via other means (such as TrustedCertificates property) are considered trusted.
	ImplicitlyTrustSelfSignedCertificates: Whether to trust self-signed certificates. Set this property to True to implicitly trust all self-signed certificates. Use it with care as trusting just about every self-signed certificate is unwise. One exceptional reason where this property may be handy is where a chain is validated in an environment that is not supposed to trust it (for example, a signing, rather than verifying environment, or a QA server). Trusting all self-signing certificates (which are normally trusted) allows to emulate the verifying environment without actually changing its security settings.

The crop box defines the region to which the contents of the page shall be clipped (cropped) when displayed or printed.
	PageInfoHeight[Index]: The Height of the page. This property contains the page height value.
	PageInfoMediaLLX[Index]: Defines the X coordinate of the lower left corner of the media box. This property contains the X coordinate of the lower left corner of the media box of the page. The media box defines the boundaries of the physical medium on which the page is to be printed.
	PageInfoMediaLLY[Index]: Defines the Y coordinate of the lower left corner of the media box. This property contains the Y coordinate of the lower left corner of the media box of the page. The media box defines the boundaries of the physical medium on which the page is to be printed.

This global property limits the maximal allowed length for ASN.1 tag data for non-content-carrying structures, such as certificates, CRLs, or timestamps. It does not affect structures that can carry content, such as CMS/CAdES messages. This is a security property aiming at preventing DoS attacks.

MaxASN1TreeDepth: Specifies the maximal depth for processed ASN.1 trees.

This global property limits the maximal depth of ASN.1 trees that the component can handle without throwing an error. This is a security property aiming at preventing DoS attacks.

OCSPHashAlgorithm: Specifies the hash algorithm to be used to identify certificates in OCSP requests.

This global setting defines the hash algorithm to use in OCSP requests during chain validation. Some OCSP responders can only use older algorithms, in which case setting this property to SHA1 may be helpful.

Tag: Allows to store any custom data.

Use this config property to store any custom data.

UseSharedSystemStorages: Specifies whether the validation engine should use a global per-process copy of the system certificate stores.

Set this global property to false to make each validation run use its own copy of system certificate stores.

UseSystemOAEPAndPSS: Enforces or disables the use of system-driven RSA OAEP and PSS computations.

This global setting defines who is responsible for performing RSA-OAEP and RSA-PSS computations where the private key is stored in a Windows system store and is exportable.
