Gets and Sets the UseSecureString property.
By default, the AWS Secret Access Key is stored
in a SecureString (true) - this is one of the secure
ways to store a secret provided by the .NET Framework.
But, the use of SecureStrings is not supported in Medium
Trust Windows Hosting environments. If you are building an
ASP.NET application that needs to run with Medium Trust,
set this property to false, and the client will
not save your AWS Secret Key in a secure string. Changing
the default to false can result in the Secret Key being
vulnerable; please use this property judiciously.
Declaration Syntax
C# |
public bool UseSecureStringForAwsSecretKey { get; set; }
Remarks
Storing the AWS Secret Access Key is not
recommended unless absolutely necessary.
