Property Value

Remarks

If this value is 'false', the system will not generate new keys automatically. The key ring must contain at least one active non-revoked key, otherwise calls to Protect(Byte[]) may fail. The system may end up protecting payloads to expired keys if this property is set to 'false'. The default value is 'true'.
