Fields

associatedData
Data
Default Value: ""

Contains the user's Associated Data when SSH AEAD (Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data) algorithm is used.

basePath
String
Default Value: ""

Base path for this user in the server's file system.

certificate
Data
Default Value: ""

Contains the user's certificate.

data
String
Default Value: ""

Contains uninterpreted user-defined data that should be associated with the user account, such as comments or custom settings.

email
String
Default Value: ""

The user's email address.

handle
Int64
Default Value: 0

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object. Use this property to assign objects of the same type in a quicker manner, without copying them fieldwise.

When you pass a handle of one object to another, the source object is copied to the destination rather than assigned. It is safe to get rid of the original object after such operation. pdfSigner.setSigningCertHandle(certMgr.getCertHandle());

hashAlgorithm
String
Default Value: ""

Specifies the hash algorithm used to generate TOTP (Time-based One-Time Passwords) passwords for this user. Three HMAC algorithms are supported, with SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512 digests:


SB_MAC_ALGORITHM_HMAC_SHA1	`SHA1`
SB_MAC_ALGORITHM_HMAC_SHA256	`SHA256`
SB_MAC_ALGORITHM_HMAC_SHA512	`SHA512`

incomingSpeedLimit
Int32
Default Value: 0

Specifies the incoming speed limit for this user. The value of 0 (zero) means "no limitation".

otpAlgorithm
OTPAlgorithms
Default Value: 0

The algorithm used to generate one-time passwords (OTP) for this user, either HOTP (Hash-based OTP) or TOTP (Time-based OTP). In the former case, a value of a dedicated counter is used to generate a unique password, while in the latter the password is generated on the basis of the current time value.


oaHmac	`0`
oaTime	`1`

otpLen
Int32
Default Value: 0

Specifies the length of the user's OTP password.

otpValue
Int32
Default Value: 0

Default Value: 0

Specifies the outgoing speed limit for this user. The value of 0 (zero) means "no limitation".

password
String
Default Value: ""

The user's authentication password.

sharedSecret
Data
Default Value: ""

Contains the user's secret key, which is essentially a shared secret between the client and server.

Shared secrets can be used in TLS-driven protocols, as well as in OTP (where it is called a 'key secret') for generating one-time passwords on one side, and validate them on the other.

sshKey

Default Value: ""

Contains the user's SSH key.

username
String
Default Value: ""

The registered name (login) of the user.

Constructors

info		Interesting runtime events (startup/shutdown).
debug		Detailed information on flow of through the system.
trace		More detailed information.

LogMaxEventCount: Specifies the maximum number of events to cache before further action is taken.

Use this property to specify the log event number threshold. This threshold may have different effects, depending on the rotation setting and/or the flush mode.

Use this property to get or set an IP address for the specified domain name in the internal (of the class) or global DNS rules storage depending on the StaticDNS value. The type of the IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) is determined automatically. If both addresses are available, they are devided by the | (pipe) character.

StaticIPAddresses: Gets or sets all the static DNS rules.

Use this property to get static DNS rules from the current rules storage or restore them back between application sessions. If StaticDNS of the class is set to "local", the property returns/restores the rules from/to the internal storage of the class. If StaticDNS of the class is set to "global", the property returns/restores the rules from/to the GLOBAL storage. The rules list is returned and accepted in JSON format.

Tag: Allows to store any custom data.

Use this config property to store any custom data.

TLSSessionGroup: Specifies the group name of TLS sessions to be used for session resumption.

Use this property to limit the search of chached TLS sessions to the specified group. Sessions from other groups will be ignored. By default, all sessions are cached with an empty group name and available to all the classes.

TLSSessionLifetime: Specifies lifetime in seconds of the cached TLS session.

UseOwnDNSResolver: Specifies whether the client components should use own DNS resolver.

Set this global property to false to force all the client components to use the DNS resolver provided by the target OS instead of using own one.

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.

UseSystemNativeSizeCalculation: An internal CryptoAPI access tweak.

This is an internal setting. Please do not use it unless instructed by the support team.

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. If set to true, SBB will delegate the computations to Windows via a CryptoAPI call. Otherwise, it will export the key material and perform the computations using its own OAEP/PSS implementation.

This setting only applies to certificates originating from a Windows system store.
