VerifyMacResponse

This example verifies an HMAC for a particular message, HMAC KMS keys, and MAC algorithm. A value of 'true' in the MacValid value in the response indicates that the HMAC is valid.

To verify an HMAC

var client = new AmazonKeyManagementServiceClient();
var response = client.VerifyMac(new VerifyMacRequest 
{
    KeyId = "1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab", // The HMAC KMS key input to the HMAC algorithm.
    Mac = new MemoryStream(<HMAC_TAG>), // The HMAC to be verified.
    MacAlgorithm = "HMAC_SHA_384", // The HMAC algorithm requested for the operation.
    Message = new MemoryStream(Hello World) // The message input to the HMAC algorithm.
});

string keyId = response.KeyId; // The key ARN of the HMAC key used in the operation.
string macAlgorithm = response.MacAlgorithm; // The HMAC algorithm used in the operation.
bool macValid = response.MacValid; // A value of 'true' indicates that verification succeeded. If verification fails, the call to VerifyMac fails.
