System.Core.dll

Gets a handle to the secret agreement generated between two parties.

Overloads

DeriveSecretAgreementHandle(ECDiffieHellmanPublicKey)

Gets a handle to the secret agreement generated between two parties, given an ECDiffieHellmanPublicKey object that contains the second party's public key.
DeriveSecretAgreementHandle(CngKey)

Gets a handle to the secret agreement generated between two parties, given a CngKey object that contains the second party's public key.

Remarks

The DeriveSecretAgreementHandle method overloads are for advanced users who need a handle to the raw secret agreement instead of the key material. The secret agreement handle can be used in platform invoke calls to perform any work that is not wrapped by the ECDiffieHellmanCng class.
