Hash Algorithm Quality

Clicking on the Hash Algorithm Quality sub-module shows the following screen:

The above table shows a list of already configured Hash algorithm quality ratings. You can add quality ratings for more algorithms by clicking the Add button and entering the details as shown below:

The Public Key Algorithm Name, Public Key Algorithm OID, Hash Algorithm and Hash Algorithm OID are only configurable from the algorithm.properties file located at <ADSS Installation Directory>/conf/console/algorithm.properties. Make sure you restart the ADSS Server after making any change in this file.

Note that the ADSS Server GUI shows hash algorithms individually as well as hash algorithms combined with public key algorithms. This is done because different signature standards have different ways of identifying the hash algorithms. To cater for this ADSS Server must have a quality rating for these different combinations in the algorithm.properties file as explained above.
