Description
The Windows Server 2003 Enhanced DSS and Diffie-Hellman Cryptographic Provider (DSSENH) is a FIPS 140-2 compliant, software-based, cryptographic module. DSSENH encapsulates several different cryptographic algorithms (including SHA-1, 3DES, DSA and Diffie-Hellman) in a cryptographic module accessible via the Microsoft CryptoAPI (CAPI).
Tested Configuration(s)
- Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (x86, x64 and IA64) (single-user mode)
