| Member name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| AES | Specifies that ASP.NET uses AES (Rijndael) encryption. | |
| MD5 | Specifies that ASP.NET uses the Message Digest 5 (MD5) hash algorithm. This algorithm performs better than SHA1. | |
| SHA1 | Specifies that ASP.NET uses the SHA1 hash algorithm. This is the default value. Use this algorithm for increased security. | |
| TripleDES | Specifies that ASP.NET uses TripleDES (3DES) encryption. TripleDES uses three successive iterations of the DES algorithm. |
The following code example shows how to use the MachineKeyValidation class. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the MachineKeySection class.
