- Attributes
Remarks
Returns true if the java.security.KeyStore entry must be encrypted at rest. This will protect the entry with the secure lock screen credential (e.g., password, PIN, or pattern).
Note that encrypting the key at rest requires that the secure lock screen (e.g., password, PIN, pattern) is set up, otherwise key generation will fail. Moreover, this key will be deleted when the secure lock screen is disabled or reset (e.g., by the user or a Device Administrator). Finally, this key cannot be used until the user unlocks the secure lock screen after boot.
This member is deprecated. Data at rest encryption is enabled by default. If extra binding to the lockscreen credential is desired, use android.security.keystore.KeyGenParameterSpec .Builder#setUserAuthenticationRequired(boolean). This flag will be ignored from Android S.
