TdxSpreadSheetStrongProtectionInfo.SaltValue Property

Specifies the cryptographic salt value prepended to the protection password prior to hash value calculation.

#Declaration

Delphi
property SaltValue: TBytes read; write;

#Property Value

Type
TBytes

#Remarks

This property supports the internal infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. A salt is a random string prepended to the password prior to its hashing in order to prevent so called “dictionary attacks”, based on using pre-calculated hash values. The SaltValue property value is automatically generated when a new instance of the TdxSpreadSheetStrongProtectionInfo class is created.

Note

The SaltValueAsString property returns the salt value as a Unicode string.
