CryptoKeyVersionAlgorithm

The algorithm of the CryptoKeyVersion, indicating what parameters must be used for each cryptographic operation.

The GOOGLE_SYMMETRIC_ENCRYPTION algorithm is usable with CryptoKey.purpose ENCRYPT_DECRYPT.

Algorithms beginning with RSA_SIGN_ are usable with CryptoKey.purpose ASYMMETRIC_SIGN.

The fields in the name after RSA_SIGN_ correspond to the following parameters: padding algorithm, modulus bit length, and digest algorithm.

For PSS, the salt length used is equal to the length of digest algorithm. For example, RSA_SIGN_PSS_2048_SHA256 will use PSS with a salt length of 256 bits or 32 bytes.

Algorithms beginning with RSA_DECRYPT_ are usable with CryptoKey.purpose ASYMMETRIC_DECRYPT.

The fields in the name after RSA_DECRYPT_ correspond to the following parameters: padding algorithm, modulus bit length, and digest algorithm.

Algorithms beginning with EC_SIGN_ are usable with CryptoKey.purpose ASYMMETRIC_SIGN.

The fields in the name after EC_SIGN_ correspond to the following parameters: elliptic curve, digest algorithm.

Algorithms beginning with HMAC_ are usable with CryptoKey.purpose MAC.

The suffix following HMAC_ corresponds to the hash algorithm being used (eg. SHA256).
