Module Name
RSA BSAFE® CNG Cryptographic Primitives Library
Historical Reason
RNG SP800-131A Revision 1 Transition
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode
Embodiment
Multi-chip standalone
Description
RSA BSAFE® CNG Cryptographic Primitives Library is a drop-in replacement for the Microsoft user-mode CNG (Cryptograpy, Next Generation) provider. It supports a wide range of industry standard encryption algorithms. Software applications written against the Microsoft CNG framework, that do not explicitly request a specific provider, will automatically use the BSAFE CNG cryptographic implementations without modification once the BSAFE CNG Primitive Provider is installed.
Tested Configuration(s)
- Microsoft Windows 7 (x86 32-bit)
- Microsoft Windows 7 (x86_64 64-bit) (single-user mode)
