Property Value

Type: System::Int32

The size, in bits, of the secret key used by the AesCng algorithm.

If you've created the AesCng object using an existing persisted key and you set the value of the KeySize property, the persisted key will no longer be used and an ephemeral key will be used instead. If you need to use the persisted key again, a new instance of AesCng class needs to be created.
